Re: convert from .mus to .ly (Bach BWV 1073: Canon )

2011-05-24 Thread Shane Brandes
Yes. First you must convert the Finale 2002 file to a Finale version
that supports exporting to a .xml version (Finale 2007 or thereabouts)
and then from there it is usually easy to convert the .xml file to .ly
using xml2ly.

I'd like to make an arrangement of  Bach BWV 1073: Canon.
I found the  Finale 2002 source files2 on the icking-music-archive.org and 
would like to know if there is a way to convert them to lilypond.

Re: Any way to turn of "strange time signature found" warnings?

2011-05-24 Thread Trevor Bača
Right. Except that then we lose *all* errors and warnings, which is a touch
dangerous.

(My usual goal is a completely error- and warning-free compile, just as a
sanity check on my .ly files.)

Making a vibrato symbol

2011-05-24 Thread Albu

How do I put the trill or vibrato symbol? Without the "tr" I just want the
waves after the "poco vib" and end them where the chord begins

\version "2.12.1"  
\relative c'
{

a'8.\mf des32 c_\markup { poco vib } f,4 \acciaccatura  g8 e2~

How about:

\version "2.12.1"

notes = \relative c'
{
f1~
< f c'~ ais'> %I want to put a crescendo and decrescendo here
c'4

c2  %and a decrescendo here
}

dynamics = {

 s2\< s4\> s4\!
 s2 s4\pp\> s4\!
}

\score {
 \new Staff <<

 \dynamics

}


That's really useful. And works fine.

Here's a good explanation (the table in particular):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guitar_harmonic#Nodes 

Look at line 4 of the table: harmonics produced on 5th and 24th frets
are 2 octave higher than open string.  My ears agree with this rule :-)

In the second bar of the snippet there is an harmonic played on 5th fret
of 4th string (a d in standard tuning), so the note must be a d two
octave higher than the d of open string.
Currently it's a g.


Look at line 2 of the table: harmonics produced on the middle of the
vibrational length are one octave higher.
When you play an artificial harmonic, you "shorten" the string so that
the middle of the vibrational length will shift up on the right.
In bar 1 of the snippet: left hand is positioned on 4th fret of 3rd
string (b note); right hand pluck the 16th fret, which is the new middle
position.
The rule above applies: one octave higher, because we are in the middle
of the main node.

In the snippet all artificial harmonics of this kind are raised up by
two octaves.

I've just realized that the second tapped harmonic may be wrong:
shouldn't it be played on 7th fret?
The difference between artificial harmonics and tapped harmonics is just
a matter of gesture? Pluck in AH, percussive in TH?

I put lilypond-user in CC, I hope someone will confirm.
Discussion started here:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2011-05/msg00233.html 

Sorry, I have few time and a very bad internet connection at the moment,
I can't investigate it further.

Cheers,
Federico

as far as i understand the doc you have to use manual beams - see yourself:

autobeam in 3/4 with rests

2011-05-24 Thread Toine Schreurs
In 3/4, the default autobeam setting combines 6 eighth notes 
under one beam. But if some of the notes are replaced by eighth rests,
the result can be confusing. 
By clearing beamExceptions, this can be solved, but now the 6 notes
are not beamed together anymore.

Is there any way to change the default behaviour if eighth rests are
involved?

Re: [ANN] Frescobaldi 2.0 development progress, runs already on Windows

2011-05-24 Thread Rodolfo Zitellini
Hi all!
This is roughly what I did:

1) I already had a working macports installation with some very basic
libs (www.macports.org), and I already had python 2.7 installed
2) I installed qt 4.7 w/bindings: sudo port install py27-pyqt4
This downloaded and compiled qt4 - qt4-mac

With this setup, the Frescobaly run, but without pdf preview, so I
installed poppler
sudo port install poppler +quartz +qt4

and the python interface compiled:
cd python-poppler-qt4-0.16.2
python2.7 setup.py build
sudo python2.7 setup.py install

to start Frescobaldi I did:
git clone git://github.com/wbsoft/frescobaldi.git
cd frescobaldi/
python2.7 frescobaldi

Ciao!
Rodolfo

It looks like TablEdit is not exporting the 
LilyPond properly.  To get the music you've shown, it should export 3 
voices, one with the quavers and another 2 with dotted crochets.  It's 
actually exporting 2 voices - one with the lower notes as single dotted 
crochets, and the other with chords of quavers.
