Re: How to connect Midi keyboard to Lilypond?
Things are working, but using VMPK is kind of confusing. I am not sure what the velocity knob does or what the bend slider does. It's very difficult to use these tools because: - Lifting a key up even slightly causes an undesired rest to be put in - It seems to be impossible to play in a way that rumor outputs the notes /where you want them/ in the measure. -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/How-to-connect-Midi-keyboard-to-Lilypond-tp151351p151795.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
How to insert a trill without the tr symbol?
Hi, What I'm looking for is some way to implement \startTrillSpan and \stopTrillSpan in music without having the tr symbol: so just trill line. Is there any way to do that? I checked the internals reference but that was not helpful... - R. -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/How-to-insert-a-trill-without-the-tr-symbol-tp151797.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: How to insert a trill without the tr symbol?
Thanks for your suggestion, but it's not working for me. I'm using version
2.16.2, maybe that's got something to do with it. I get the following errors
and then several other syntax errors:
error: syntax error, unexpected '.', expecting SCM_FUNCTION or
SCM_IDENTIFIER or SCM_TOKEN
\set Staff.instrumentName = #Violin 1 \override
TrillSpanner.bound-details

Re: How to connect Midi keyboard to Lilypond?
Thank you very much, rumor is now working. I think that we have used more disk space, collectively, discussing whether or not MIDI input to Lilypond will save time, than the rumor source code takes up. And more time was probably spent in the discussion than will be saved by using (or not using) MIDI! -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/How-to-connect-Midi-keyboard-to-Lilypond-tp151351p151548.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
How to connect Midi keyboard to Lilypond?
Hello, I was looking for a way to create Lilypond files at a better speed than just typing them by hand. Someone suggested I use my computer keyboard as a MIDI keyboard. I didn't know Lilypond could do this, and looking online, I found vmpk, rumor, and lyqi and compiled the latest versions of each with success. Vmpk is the midi keyboard itself, and rumor and lyqi are the programs that take input from a midi device and convert it into lilypond syntax, right? Lyqi seems more advanced, somehow, than rumor... My question is, which should I use, and how should I use it? I can start vmpk successfully, but beyond that I am unsure on what to do. `lyqi` returns command not found and `rumor` reports: ALSA port connection error; do it manually using `aconnect'. `aconnect -i` says: $ aconnect -i client 0: 'System' [type=kernel] 0 'Timer ' 1 'Announce' client 14: 'Midi Through' [type=kernel] 0 'Midi Through Port-0' client 128: 'VMPK Output' [type=user] 0 'VMPK Output ' ... and `aconnect -o` says: $ aconnect -o client 14: 'Midi Through' [type=kernel] 0 'Midi Through Port-0' client 129: 'VMPK Input' [type=user] 0 'VMPK Input ' I am not sure what I should connect to what. What is particularly confusing to me is why inputs are listed under the list of what are supposed to be outputs. Has anyone had success with getting Midi to Lilypond to work? I appreciate your time, - R. -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/How-to-connect-Midi-keyboard-to-Lilypond-tp151351.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: How to connect Midi keyboard to Lilypond?
Thanks for the link. I am still having trouble getting vmpk and the jedit plugin to connect. I open vmpk, open jedit to a blank document, and set the jedit plugin's language to English. However, I am not sure how to proceed from there... pressing keys in vmpk doesn't do anything. The only MIDI input for the plugin is Real Time Sequencer, and the only input and output in vmpk is still Midi Through:0. -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/How-to-connect-Midi-keyboard-to-Lilypond-tp151351p151359.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
