MIDI, dynamics and expression
Hi lilypond people,
I'm trying to understand how all this works; there is a short code file as
attachment, with midi and pdf ones; I tried to use dynamics and other
signs, but the difference on sound between signed (with 'p' and others
signs) and not signed notes it's quite not hearable; I found in docs
instructions about how to modify the output level of each midi instrument ,
and the same about output level of applied signs; every time docs refers to
a scm/midi.scm file, for default settings, but I can't understand its
values; I need to know what defaults settings are, for trying to manage
them. Any help about is very appreciated

conflict in dymanics signs
Hi lilypond people, I'm trying to transcribe an orchestral part; this is a solo Oboe part; there is a "cresc" ending in a "ff", but in the meanwhile there are other dynamics signs (expression?); I don't know how to combine the general crescendo with single dynamics expression signs; lilypond warning me about a conflict, and it ignores the two 'decrescendo' signs; how to do for nesting expression signs inside the longer and general crescendo? I would get it keeping the score original signs. the original [image: image.png] the lily output : [image: image.png] the code : as'\(\! b\cresc\> g\! es\< g\! f\> es\! b\< es\! f2\) f-> f-> f->\ff thanks all

how to use variables
Hi lilypond people,
I'm going to transcribe an orchester part; I'd like to put some musica
fragments in variables, then I coil avoid to type again the same things or
do so many copy and paste; I tried by this way :
\version "2.24.1"
\header {
title = "Piano Concerto No 1"
instrument = "Oboe"
composer = "S. Prokofiev"
opus = "10"
}
global = {
\key des \major
\time 2/2
}
TEMA = {
\relative c'' {
r1
r2 r4 aes8.( aes16
c4\< des f g\!
aes4\> ges f)\!\< g8.( g16\!
aes4\> ges f\!\< g\!
aes4\> ges f)\!
}
oboe = \relative c'' {

r2 r4 aes8.( aes16
c4\< des f g\!
aes4\> ges f)\!\< g8.( g16\!
aes4\> ges f\!\< g\!
aes4\> ges f)\!
\TEMA
}
but I get error; my goal would be to get all common music fragments in a
single file, keeping them separated from other music parts, and using it
with \include statement; is it possible?

Hi lilypond friends, I'd like to create an orchestral midi collection, for playing piano concertos with a MIDI accompaniment.

I'm a pianist and piano teacher, this kind of solution could improve very much the teaching level and the final piano and orchestra exam; indeed, it could be a development idea, creating a web site to offer this service Hoping this idea could be interesting for someone, I wait for your help or even thoughts regards dario m.

Re: Documentation confusion regarding MIDI.
Well,. I'm part of the same club, the Midi environment has always been a hard chapter, anyhow, I know the difference between 'track' and 'channel' : in sound or video editing software, the track is just a container, you can have multiple tracks, video tracks, audio tracks, Midi tracks and so on, any track has its own properties, regarding the 'nature' of the carried information, in example you can have a mono or stereo audio track. Channels are tracks you can play (or record) simultaneously, for example my Tascam portable stereo recorder has four tracks capability, then I can use four microphones at the same time, but channels are always two, to listen all four tracks I have to mix them into two channels.

how to write music elements
Hi musicians, I'm going to write a little paper with short music elements terminology; I need to be able to write single music elements, as notes (whole note, half note, quarter note and so on) on white field, without staff, the same about clef, time, tempo, staff, double staff and so on; I need each single music element alone, how can I do that? best regards and Happy Easter dario
Re: OOolilypond Libre Office extension : insert object large as full page
Hi Klaus, I found the problem
I don't know why, but the Default.ly in OOoLilyPond-templates directory ,
that's located in my home directory, /home/dario/, had no "\include
lilypond-preamble.ly" line; I think because may be it was coming from
prevoius version of the extension; after deleting every file and directory
in my home referring to OOoLilypond, I removed the extension and I added it
again, and now it works properly.
May be it would have been enough to do restore default templates, but I
didn't think to do it.
Many thanks to all you, I hope I have made a little contribution to
someone.
Best regards
Dario

OOolilypond Libre Office extension : insert object large as full page
Hi musicians, I'm trying to use OOolilypond LO extension; I downloaded last stable version. 05,12, and the previous one, 0,5,11; it seems they are working properly, but they always produce a music object with a full page dimension, maing troubles in writing the document. any idea? thank you very much dario
how to create a book from multiple .ly files
Hi musicians, i wrote some training exercises for the piano; I have a .ly file for each one; because these exercises share the same structure (a musical pattern that is translated to other keys) I put the music content (notes) on a separated .ly file; I read the documentation but I don't understand how to do to collect all the exercises in a single book, with text parts between them. I would avoid copyng and paste the music content on the final "book" .ly file, indeed using single exercises files as reference , but I don't know if I can or not. Any help is appreciated dario
lilypond and rosegarden : control track (?) in midi output? (linux user)
Hi everybody, I'm trying to create a orchester midi file using lilypond as source notation and rosegarden; I have some trouble using rosegarden jack and so on (I'm using linux), but I came to a working two strings tracks with two fluidsynth instances, so I can manage Violin I on the left and Violin II on the right. I can't figure out the presence of a 'control track' when I import the midi files (outputted by lilypond) in rosegarden, as there is a staff only in lilypond, so do I have a single midi channel, right? I dont' know if it is a lilypond or rosegarden way of working.

Re: how to get expression in midi
many thanks Teoh,
I'll take time to study all you sent me, I see it's hard to understand in a
first look...
may you and anybody suggest me any MIDI editor avaluable for Linux? I don't
use Windows anymore, since '99...
I thought using lilypond might be better to manipulate some stuff like
crescendo and diminuendo; simply putting two commands among notes; I have
no idea how a midi editor could do that, but in case of a long crescendo
(several bars) I think it's not a good idea using lilypond command, instead
of changing singular notes' velocity; correct me if I am wrong

Re: how to get expression in midi
thanks to all, I tried the Teoh's solution and it worked in a few
seconds...
now, other questions...
- violin part has many 1/8 notes, many are repeating itselves, listening
the MIDI output it seems it's not very well, notes' sounds are too much
closing, and repeating notes sound like a unique sound almost. how may I
fix this? I think it'd better writing each 1/8 note as 'staccato', but may
the Midi output will be according on that? besides, it's very hard now to
rewrite all the code, so, there is some tool to do that, a sort of 'mass
modifier' about the text code? I dont' want to fight with my poor Perl
knowledge
- is it possible to change the velocity (volume?) of a single long note?
example, brass ensemble start with a 'sf', then play crescendo the same
note while 'crescendo' from a 'p' to a 'f' again; I don't know if it is
possible in a MIDI environment, and how to perform this using lilypond
notation

how to get expression in midi
Hi everybody,
I'm trying to get a 'expressive' midi file, classical music ( I'm copying
the Final from Beethoven's Leonora n.3 Ouverture); I prefere to manage
expression marks separately from notes' body, so I created two voice
contextes, one foe the notes and one for expression; each value n the
notes' body is replicated as a 's' instance in expression's body, but doing
so I don't get any expression; if I put expression mark into the notes'
body I can hear crescendo and so on.
I really would maintain spearately the two fields, notes and expressions,
so I ask if there is a way to get it.
Many thanks to all
Dario

how to write notes without staff?
hi, I need to write some little tests, in which I have to put simple notes, without staff, clef and time; I can make trasparent barlines by using \cadenzaOn, and I can have a single line using \new RithmStaff, but how can I make trasparent the line of RythmStaff? and how can I alternate notes and text character (like =, or +) using lilypond code only? I use Openoffice and OOoLilypond. thanks, bye -- Dario Marrini [EMAIL PROTECTED] Linux Registered User#240359 Linux Registered Machine #133789 ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
