Re: Pick a pitch/instrument in MIDI output
I've read all of that. All of those instruments are pitched. I want just a snare drum to hit out the rhythm. I can't access the percussion midi instruments as I'm not using a drum staff, and if I was, the notes would still change (percussion) instrument as the pitch changed. Basically, I want to replicate an audio RhythmStaff. So, maybe a better phrased question: Can I pick a particular midi instrument pitch (eg c', snare etc...) and use that for all notes in my score? 2009/4/17 Nick Payne nick.pa...@internode.on.net: See s.3.5.1 of the notation reference manual.

Re: Pick a pitch/instrument in MIDI output
I was thinking along the lines of defining my own sort of drumpitch-init.ly file and mapping my notes to the midi pitches. Is this possible? I currently have: %RightHand and LeftHand pitchnamesSidedrum = #`( (rh . ,(ly:make-pitch 0 1 NATURAL)) (lh . ,(ly:make-pitch 0 -1 NATURAL)) ) #(ly:parser-set-note-names parser pitchnamesSidedrum) and tell Lilypond to map those notes to the snare sound (or the bass or tomtom)? any hints on how the drumpth-init.ly file actually works? 2009/4/17 Nick Payne nick.pa...@internode.on.net: Try \set Staff.midiInstrument=gunshot Nick -Original Message- From: Matthew Rowles [mailto:rowle...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, 17 April 2009 20:51 To: Nick Payne Cc: lilypond-user Subject: Re: Pick a pitch/instrument in MIDI output I've read all of that.
