Re: Trying to control chord symbols
OK. I figured out my problem. The issue is that all pitches above the
octave need to be raised. So for instance,
c e g bes d' a'1-\markup { \super 13 }
is the right syntax, and putting in a d instead of a d' won't work. I
thought I'd tried that, but I guess I hadn't. Thanks for all the
suggestions.

Trying to control chord symbols (shorter)
I asked this a couple days ago but haven't received any answers, so I
thought I'd try to distill it down to a shorter question.
The two utterances here seem to produce the same set of pitches:
\new Staff {
\chordmode { c1:13 }
\relative c' { c e g bes d a' }
}
If I define an accompaniment track via
accompaniment = \chordmode { c1:13 c:13 }
the accompaniment symbol shows up at C^{9/add 13}. What do I have to
put in chExceptionMusic to control this? I've tried
c e g bes d a'1-\markup { \super 13 }
as well as many other variants, but none of them see to work. (I am
already successfully using chExceptionMusic to control some other
chords.)
Any help is appreciated.
Cheers,
rif

RE: Trying to control chord symbols (shorter)
I sent a reply with an example yesterday (I think), but since I'm at work I
don't have the file, and I generally delete the user group e-mails pretty
quickly.
IIRC I thought you had the exceptions format down but might not have been
invoking it in your code. I have found that if you have more than one
exception when you use one you cancel the other.
If you can't find my reply in the archives (it's possible that your e-mail
system flagged it as junk?) e-mail me off the list and I'll send you the
example file directly.
Cheers!

RE: Trying to control chord symbols
LP's default name for d:13 is 9 add 13. Thinking about it, it IS a logical
name, just not what I've been taught and learned about music theory here in the
USA. Perhaps European convention uses that nomenclature?
It seems you have the definitions of the chord name exceptions down. You have
to implement it in you music when you want to use it. Here is an example:
Exception to make chord name 13 instead of 9th add 13
chExcThirteen =
{
c e g bes d' a'1-\markup { \super 13 }
}
chExsThirteen =
#(append
(sequential-music-to-chord-exceptions chExcThirteen #t)
ignatzekExceptions)
Exception to make chord name 7 add 4 instead of 7/sus4/add 3
chExcSevenAddFour =
{
c e f g bes1-\markup { \super 7add4 }
}
chExsSevenAddFour =
#(append
(sequential-music-to-chord-exceptions chExcSevenAddFour #t)
ignatzekExceptions)
%
harmonies = \chordmode
{
% *** verse 1 *
\set chordNameExceptions = #chExsSevenAddFour
fis1 :7.4
\set chordNameExceptions = #chExsThirteen
d:13
fis :7.4
}
\score{ \context ChordNames { \harmonies }
}
This *should* shown the first chord as F#7 add 4, but the second instance as
F#7 sus4 add3 (at least it did for me). In order to have the second F# chord
show as I would like I have to implement the exception again before it is
rendered, since the implementaion of the 13th exception has overridden my first
exception.
At least that is the way it seems to work for me in v2.6.5.

14 Apr 2007 23:23:55 -0400 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm trying to get
chord symbols in my score to show up how I want. I've read about
ChordNameExceptions in section 7.2.3 (Printing chord names) of the manual,
and I have this somewhat working --- I make chExceptionMusic and adjust
chExceptions, and set chordNameExceptions, as described in
input/regression/chord-name-exceptions.ly. However, it seems to only be
partially succesful. For instance, these seem to work exactly as I expect:
c ees g bes1-\markup { \super -7 } c e gis bes1-\markup { \super +
} But these seem to have no effect c e g b d1-\markup { \super
maj9 } // f:maj9 yields f^maj7/9 // So does fmaj7.9 c e g bes d
a1-\markup { \super 13 } // d:13 yields d^9add13 // So does d:7.9.13
It's almost like I don't have the right chords. I'm not sure what lilypond
thinks I mean when I type d:13. Where is this mapping defined? What am I
missing? I've found the appendix C.1 (Chord name chart.), but it's not
clear what lilypond code produces these. Any help is appreciated.
