Are you using articulate.ly (and its respective articulating command) and/or some LilyPond 2.19? Either should likely make a difference. I don't think that LilyPond can do a lot more than end one note when the next starts, and it should do that with either option if I remember correctly. lilymidi --pretty should be able to show that information from a usefully small Midi file. > At some point, I may have time to research this issue in more depth, > but I am hoping that someone here might be able to save me some work. I don't think that much more than abutting notes is possible from LilyPond's site. We don't have something like access to "do not tongue" controllers. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
