partials and midi
Lilypond is wonderful, wonderful, thank you all very much.
Please,
v2.12.0, here is my code:
%%%
\time 3/4 \key g \major
\repeat volta 2 {
\partial 8*2 g'8 b \bar ||:
d4 d8 e d c \bar |
b4 g g8 b \bar |
}
}
\score {
\unfoldRepeats
{
\voicedefault
}
\midi {
\context {
\Score
tempoWholesPerMinute = #(ly:make-moment 72 4)
}
}
}
%%%
but, timidity plays the partial \partial 8*2 g'8 b as part of the
repeat. Surely this is not correct ? Surely the repeat should play from
d4 d8 e d c.
What am I doing wrong ?

newbie: bar lines and lead ins
Please,
\time 6/8 \key g \major g'8 \bar |
\repeat volta 2 {
b'8 ^G a'8g'8b'8 a'8g'8 %\bar |
b'8 ^Bm a'8b'8b'8c''8d''8%\bar |

e''8 ^C g''8e''8d''8 ^G c''8b'8%\bar |
a'8 ^D fis'8a'8g'4 ^G %\bar |
}
I would like this to print as:
g|bag bag|bab bcd| ..
but Lily shows it with the first bar line missing and remainder in the
wrong places.
I know I can put the bar lines in manually, but that is a pain.
In essence I need print one or two lead-in notes, a bar line and then
start counting.
My searches of the LM have failed to find this.

latex, newcommand and lilypond-book
Please,
in my latex file I have:
\newcommand{\lily }[1]{\lilypondfile{#1}{#1}}
but, lilypond-book then complains:
lilypond-book: error: file not found: #1
Again in my niavete, I had hoped to use blocks of latex code like:
\begin{figure}[h]
\index{over the ocean}
\lily{lilys/over.the.ocean.ly} % current implementation of newcommand
\end{figure}
I am using a figure environment to ensure that no tune involves a page
turn.
I have googled and googled and noticed that this issue has come up
before, but I do not see a work around.

from abc a general approach ?
Please, I am trying to put together a collection of (Irish) traditional music and I need some general advice. I have lilypond book working quite well, but I find the abc code is such that the resulting abc2ly files are often unsatisfactory - problems with beaming, abc2ly complains about a variety of things and says HUH ? a lot. Patching up the abc and/or ly is a lot of work. One of the reasons why I tried Lillypond at all is that I perceive a lack of standards in abc files. I have also tried abcm2ps and producing eps files. But here I cannot get latex to position the graphics consistently on the page and the printed output is again not very attractive sometimes. Any tips ? Perhaps I just have to prepare myself for a lot of donkey work and there is nothing I can do about it :-( -- Thanks Joe Mc Cool Snark, currently LEYC 028 37548074, 07802572441 ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

rolls in Irish Traditional Music
Please, rolls in Irish traditional music are normally indicated by a ~ over the note. But these are not written to the midi file as rolls, at least, Timidity does not play them. Do I have to articulate the rolls fully in lily, or is there some other short cut way of doing it ? -- Thanks Joe Mc Cool Snark, currently LEYC 028 37548074, 07802572441 ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
alternatives and bars problem
Newbie, sorry.
Version 2.11.33
In the final part of this tune, the 1st alternative prints fine, but
the second one has the bars all screwed up. The first g4, is on a bar
of its own !
How can I stop bar numbers being printed for the partial bars ?
Also when I use timidity to play the midi file, it ignores all the repeats. I
just plays the tune straight through.
