 That even works with \version 2.12.3.

Uh, it even works with \version 2.7.38.  You just have to use a
version of LilyPond that is at least at version 2.15.16 (for addition of
the \stringTuning command with the somewhat undescriptive but colorful
commit message

Get rid of most of the insane string-tunings API
) and at least version 2.15.43 to allow for assigning a value to
five-bass with a normal LilyPond assignment.

You seem to misunderstand what \version does.  It is important for
convert-ly, and LilyPond will complain whenever the \version header
indicates a version newer than itself (or, for some strange reason,
older than 2.7.38).  But apart from this warning, LilyPond does not
change behavior.  It's still the same old 2.18.2 or whatever else it has
been compiled as.

 I just reference to the original code under question. It obviously
 used lilypond
 \version 2.12.3

But it's a bad idea to tack on a version header referring to a version
with which the file won't work.

For one thing, if people with an older version of LilyPond try running
the code, they'll get mysterious error messages without being advised
about the version mismatch.

For another, when convert-ly is being run on the file, it might make a
hash of it because it assumes a much older syntax than there actually is
and upgrades it.

So there is no point in leaving a \version 2.12.3 at the top of the
file while at the same time updating its syntax to that of 2.18.2 (or in
this case probably 2.16.0 if nothing else is in there requiring a newer
version).

If you really have a 6 string bass extend the string list. I think to
six-bass = \stringTuning b,, e, a, d g c'

Re: Errors when using TabStaff with stringTunings

2015-08-25 Thread Blöchl Bernhard

That cannot work as you overwrite your setting
\set Staff.stringTunings = \stringTuning e,, a,, d, g,
with
\set Staff.stringTunings = #bass-tuning

#bass-tuning is preset in the list in lilypond you got shortly with 
another mail.


Correct use is
  \new TabStaff {
\set Staff.stringTunings = \stringTuning e,, a,, d, g,
\yournotes
  }

I wold recommend you to study the manual, i. e.
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/common-notation-for-fretted-strings.html

Errors when using TabStaff with stringTunings

2015-08-24 Thread Kevin Nowaczyk
I have a lilypond file which used to parse perfectly well several years ago. I 
recently reinstalled lilypond (2.18.2 from debian-stable) and now I receive an 
error. I've reduced the file down and determined that setting the stringTunings 
is the problem. The file I have has both guitar tab and bass guitar tab. If I 
leave the   \set TabStaff.stringTunings = #'(4 -1 -5 -10 -15 -20) line out, it 
displays correctly. If I add it in, it presents the following error:

Hello Kevin,

welcome back to the Pond :-)
There have been many syntax changes since v2.12, and one of them is the 
culprit here, so you’ll want to get a look at 
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/usage/updating-files-with-convert_002dly. 
(In case you’re using Frescobaldi: Tools/Update with convert.ly…)

BTW: we use to have the version number right at the beginning of the file.
The attached version works fine.

All the best,
Simon

Re: Errors when using TabStaff with stringTunings

2015-08-24 Thread Kevin Nowaczyk
Thanks for the help everyone,

I would up changing the stringTungings line to:
\set Staff.stringTunings = \stringTuning e,, a,, d, g,
And everything works fine. However, I also tried the notaion:
\set Staff.stringTunings = #bass-tuning
but that didn't work. I'll have to figure that out at a later time.

All-in-all, I installed mediawiki with the Score plugin to show off a few 
guitar tabs I transcribed a few years ago. If you're curious, the first one 
(that now works) is here:

Thanks Again,

 Run convert-ly -ed on the file.  At least on
 your example file, it
 upgraded the version
 successfully.  The resulting code is rather ugly
 but works.  You might want to look up the
 \stringTuning function in the
 notation
 manual in order to do this in a prettier way.
