midi2ly and other conversion tools are known to be incomplete, so you 
can’t expect such a workflow to return satisfying results in all 
cases/without manual adjustment.
And, for future cases: You are more likely to get help if you actually 
include example files, i.e. in this case the handel.midi and 
handel-midi.ly files as attachments.

Problems with midi2ly

2016-03-05 Thread mark damerell
Please:

1. Where is the manual? The man page says it is a texinfo document, but
I cannot find it.

2. Trying to convert a  Midi  file, nearly all notes have weird durations.
I
assume that I should add a  -d  or  -s  but the manpage gives no hint of
the units of  duratioon .

3. Lyrics get mangled. To see this, go to

manuals > learning > 3.4.2 Four part SATB

and extract the Handel example. Add

\layout {}
\midi {}

just above the very last  }   which terminates the  \score.

Save, say as  handel.ly   . Run  lilypond  on this. The   pdf  looks
exactly as it
says in the manual. But run  midi2ly  on the  midi  file. This gives
handel-midi.ly

Please any advice? thank you.

Looks like a problem of tempo/quantization to me. I don't know midi2ly
at all (I haven't ever used it actually), but I believe there are
people on this list who can (and will) help you...

What software did you use to record this as a MIDI file?

Cheers,
Valentin

Hi

A example of LilyPond code I get:

--
% Lily was here -- automatically converted by C:\Archivos de 
programa\LilyPond\usr\bin\midi2ly.py from output.mid
\version "2.7.18"


trackAchannelA =  {
  
  \tempo 4 = 60 
  
  \time 4/4 
  

  \key g \major
  
}

trackAchannelB = \relative c {
  s4*143/24 c'32*5 s32*11 c'4*31/24 s8. g'4*32/24 s4*16/24 |
  % 4
  g,4*7/24 s4*17/24 e4*7/24 s4*16/24 c16 
}

trackA = <<
  \context Voice = channelA \trackAchannelA
  \context Voice = channelB \trackAchannelB
>>


trackBchannelA =  {
  
  \tempo 4 = 60 
  
  \time 4/4 
  

  \key g \major
  
}

trackBchannelB = \relative c {
  s4*97/24 c4*5/24 s4*257/24 g'4*5/24 s8. c,4*88/24 
}

trackB = <<

  \clef bass
  
  \context Voice = channelA \trackBchannelA
  \context Voice = channelB \trackBchannelB
>>


\score {
  <<
\context Staff=trackA \trackA
\context Staff=trackB \trackB
  >>
}


 
When I open with Sibelius the file I have recorded in my program the rests and 
figure measures is ok. 


Only I have to modify midi2ly.py?? 



Thanks

Greetings,

this problems must come from the program you're using to record your
music (tempo settings, for example?).
If you can post a short example from the LilyPond code you get, we may
be able to help you.

If you know Python programming language, you can also have at the file
midi2ly.py, in your LilyPond installation folder.

Cheers,
Valentin

Rest and bar measures problems with midi2ly

Hello,

I have a problem with midi2ly. When I save a midi file in Sibelius, and then I 
invoke midi2ly, the translation is ok. But when I record a midi file with my 
piano and another program I have problem with rests and the bar measures. What 
can I do?? What files do I have to modify to improve midi2ly

Problems with midi2ly

2007-07-07 Thread Dewdman42

Hi everyone.  New lilypond user here.  trying to use midi2ly to convert a
score I made in Overture and saved as type 1 mid.  The midi file was from
notation, not from performance(so the times and durations should be
quantized already).

When I run midi2ly, it produces an ly file, no error, but the only thing in
the output file is the following which is obviously wrong, its a complete
orch score.  Any ideas what I'm missing?  I have lilypond 2.10.25 installed
on windows.  This is what it currently outputs with no error messages:



% Lily was here -- automatically converted by C:\Program
Files\LilyPond\usr\bin\midi2ly.py from 1M2-orch-sketch-v3.mid
\version "2.7.18"


\score {
  <<
  >>
}

problems with midi2ly

2005-01-26 Thread L Bowles, Engineering 02
Hi.
I'm having problems with midi2ly.  I had it working fine until a few weeks 
ago when I updated Cygwin.  I've since uninstalled and reinstalled Cygwin 
and lilypond from scratch (including some of the earlier versions, in case 
that was the problem), but I still get this message when running midi2ly:

Traceback :
 File "/usr/bin/midi2ly", line 43, in ?
   import midi
ImportError: dlopen, Win32 error 126
I also get errors when trying to run lilypond on .ly files which were 
created by midi2ly itself, when it was working on my machine.

What could be going wrong?
Thanks,
Lisa Bowles.
