That is about the same as on the computer keyboard that I used with my ChucK 2D layout program, which seemed to work fine with ornaments, perhaps not full speed, but a real music keyboard ought to do better, An accordion instruction book shows one should play buttons from above. Check what pros do. Fingering is individual, so if your fingers are thicker than normal, perhaps that does not work, and you will have to do something else. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
