FOSDEM music notation gathering

2012-01-02 Thread Thomas Bonte

Anyone planning to go to FOSDEM? http://fosdem.org/2012/ 
The largest open source developer gathering in Europe on Feb 4-5 in
Brussels.

The MuseScore team (Werner Schweer, Nicolas Froment, Thomas Bonte) will be
there as well. Could be nice to have a music notation get together.

Re: quality of lilypond outputs of different WYSIWIG software

2009-08-18 Thread Thomas Bonte

Hi Daryna,

There is always the possibility to export your work in MuseScore to MusicXML
and import it in Lilypond. The MusicXML export for MuseScore is very
accurate and I believe Reinhold did a very good job with the import. So
certainly something to try out.

Re: quality of lilypond outputs of different WYSIWIG software

2009-08-04 Thread Thomas Bonte

Lilypond import for MuseScore is very very limited, but export is a little
more elaborated. So don't expect it to be funtional for full scores.

Most of the development work is done by Olavgun. You can see 
http://www.ohloh.net/p/musescore/contributors/48848810665750 his commits
over the past years  on ohloh.

Re: Converting lilypond to music xml

2008-08-25 Thread Thomas Bonte

You could also use MuseScore (www.musescore.com) which is available for linux
& windows and which runs via the command line as well. Therefore, converting
midi to musicXML goes really fast.

For what's it worth, I'm interested in musicXML output from lilypond as well.
And to help centralizing the information, here is the link
(http://www.nabble.com/MusicXML-backend-for-lilypond--to17957920.html#a17957920)
to a previous discussion about ly to musicxml conversion.

MuseScore (http://musescore.org) has export to lilypond as well, although I

Re: Extracting only lyrics and chords

2008-04-11 Thread Thomas Bonte

You may want to have a look at an old post about 
http://www.nabble.com/Creating-a-nice-formatted-Chords-%2B-Lyrics-layout-for-guitar-players-to13829430.html#a13829430
Creating a nice formatted Chords + Lyrics layout for guitar players .

Look especially at the layout part, which will render the staff invisble,
but keep the lyrics and chords visible:

\layout {
  \context {
\Score

\remove "Mark_engraver"
\remove "Bar_number_engraver"
\remove "Metronome_mark_engraver"
\remove "Time_signature_engraver"
%\remove "Spacing_engraver"
   
% Remove all-rest staves also in the first system
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'remove-first = ##t

  }
  \context {
\Staff
\remove "Staff_symbol_engraver" 
  }
  \context { 
% add the RemoveEmptyStaffContext that erases rest-only staves
\RemoveEmptyStaffContext 
  } 
}

I hope this may be a start.
If you find anything else, share it in this thread as well.

Hi Johan,

I did find you personal website, which has a lot of references to several
programs dealing with music (impressive list I must say), but can you point
me to the 'chords' program? An url perhaps?

Thx for the reply.

Re: Creating a nice formatted Chords + Lyrics layout for guitar players

2007-11-19 Thread Thomas Bonte

Hi eyolf,

It is indeed already discussed before, but without proper results.

The reason why we use lilypond is because I want to use the transpose
functionality, in order to transpose several keys in one time using a little
script. So, I don't consider this as pure text.
But it's possible that this can also be achieved using LaTeX. I don't know
yet. So, thanks for the links. I will check them out.

Creating a nice formatted Chords + Lyrics layout for guitar players

2007-11-19 Thread Thomas Bonte

I'm trying to create a nice Chords + Lyrics layout, formatted in the same way
as you may see on the many websites offering ascii chords and lyrics.

You may see my current result on this pdf file: 
http://www.nabble.com/file/p13829430/CL-v2.pdf CL-v2.pdf 
As you will notice, there is one issue I couldn't solve yet: align all
content to the left side of the page. I have no clue whether this is
possible, but I've noticed that there are some possibilities with using
springs.

If you wish to help, you can find the lilypond code in this file: 
http://www.nabble.com/file/p13829430/CL-v2.ly CL-v2.ly 

Thx!
