Re: Problems with Midi
Yeah, Fred, I don't know what the Pango stuff is, either, but I get none of that on my compiles. The chords are only on the first line of the piece -- I haven't completed them yet, and won't until I complete the score. My daughter belongs to the Sweet Adelines chorus, and she has been helping their director to figure out some of the musicological stuff, so I'll put them in for their benefit, once the piece is exactly as I want it.

Re: Problems with Midi
Fr Gordon I'm glad that was simple. Here are the errors. I don't understand them at all and they didn't seem to have an effect. Pango complaints. I have pango 1.14.2_0 on the system and all the pango stuff that came with LilyPond. No matter. Also, I only got chords on the first line of the PDF. LIke I said, if it works for you, then go for it.

Trevor, Thanks for your help. Actually, Fred gave me a very simple fix -- move the curly brace for the end of the \score section to the very end of the piece -- and it worked -- now I'm on my way.

RE: Problems with Midi
This might not be much help, but I tried your file on 2.8.6 (which I am
still using) with a rearrangement of the \midi \layout and \score to suit
the 2.8.6 format and it seemed to produce correct pdf and midi, although I
didn't get the tempo right. Here's the midi file for you to check.

OK, I'm gonna try this again ...
A few days ago, I wrote the list asking a question about midi, and saw
that my message came out in the digest, but I've got no help about it, so
here's my question again:
I'm arranging a hymn for barbershop chorus, and frequently want to check
my work to make sure I get the unique barbershop harmonies correct. I was
playing the midi file (with simple piano -- instrument is not important).
This was working fine until I introduced some 'divisi' voices in the last
stanza. Then, all of a sudden the midi file seemed only to contain (or at
least, only to play) the lower staff notes. Nothing I do seems to help
this -- I can't play the full piece. I've tried with the jEdit LilyPond
Tool interface, and with WinAmp -- both sound the same.
When I compile, I get no warnings about anything going wrong, nor do I
have any problem with the PDF display. I *would* appreciate faster compile
times, but I'm told I need more RAM for that, so I'll settle for fixing my
midi ...
I am using LilyPond 2.11.14, jEdit 4.3pre9, LilyPond Tool, and Windoze XP
Pro. My file follows my signature. Thanks for your help.

Re: Problems with Midi
Fr Gilbert:
I typeset your example as is on version 2.11.13 on a Mac OS X. I got
pdf output (in spite of errors) but no midi. Then I moved the close
bracket for the \score command from before the \layout to the end of
the file. I re-typeset. Got the midi file. And it sounded
complete. In the midi section of the manual it says the midi should
be inside \score. Maybe that is the issue.
Good luck.

When you've dug yourself into a hole, the first thing you should
do is not to call for more shovels, but to *stop digging*.
Western "leaders" have had 12 years to figure Iraq out. I did.
Why couldn't they? Never ever lift a finger to defend despots.

Re: problems with MIDI output
No! As has already been pointed out earlier, the \midi{} block
has to appear within the \score{} block.
In order to also get some printed output, you should also put the
\paper block within the score block if you have a \midi block there.

Re: problems with MIDI output
As far as I know, the midi-tag has to be inside of the score-tag:
...
\score {
...
\midi { ... }
...
}
...
