I used to use ABC http://abcnotation.com/ that way. I'm finding that the %%LY strings I put into my files 10 years ago are useless or harmful now. So I wish I'd just declared the lilypond canonical, and dropped the ABC after conversion. At some point, it turned out to be easier to use a MIDI keyboard to input lilypond directly than to go through ABC, so now I rarely use ABC except with my old stuff or when one of my ABC using friends transcribes something. That being said, the fact that someone modified abc2ly to break the way *my* ABC uses clefs (ABC isn't standardized, so there are several dialects) is a real nuisance. This kind of change should be discussed somewhere. -- Laura (mailto:lcon...@laymusic.org, twitter: @serpentplayer) (617) 661-8097 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139 http://www.laymusic.org/ http://www.serpentpublications.org A traveling horn virtuoso, Barry Tuckwell, was once asked about the problem of how to practice while traveling and living in hotels.

- Original Message - From: JCHarris Music m...@jchmusic.com To: lilypond-user@gnu.org Sent: Tuesday, April 12, 2011 9:08 AM Subject: Lilypond with Cubase/DAW for Musical Hi, I am working a large piece with voice, dialogue, etc. (a 'musical'). I have been using Cubase to mock up the various music bits. Surprisingly, I have found the latest scoring functions to be not half bad at all. Unfortunately, it still has some serious shortcomings in terms of adding lyrics, dialogue, stage directions and so on... the stuff that has to be in the final score and book. Ideally, I would love it if Cubase had features for all that stuff, but until such a day, I'm wondering if anyone here has experience in using Cubase for this sort of thing and how you handle this. I have been looking at LilyPond, which produces marvelous looking output, but it looks like it would be a terror to input this large project into directly. Fortunately, it does import MusicXML. So I am thinking of trying to export from Cubase as MusicXML into LilyPond and then add the other lyrics, stage directions, etc. in Lilypond. Any suggestions on doing such a workflow? I do something similar using Noteworthy. (http://www.noteworthysoftware.com/) I notate using Noteworthy, export using its text format and then use a self-written program to convert to LilyPond. The single piece of advice I would give is to try to edit the LilyPond files as little as possible - I almost never touch them directly - I put all my annotations in Noteworthy, using hidden text as a code to transfer to LilyPond.
