No, I switched from Finale (7 Years) to Lilypond, but I use Lilypond "only" to write the score to have a basis to work with the music.
And here is a problem : I can only export to midi not xml . So I export it to Finale (Human Playback from Robert Piéchaud) or Harmony Assistant (via Midi) and produce a decent playback using mostly Garritan samples. When it sounds good I export it back to a DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) mostly using Samplitude to have an audible nice piece of music by tweaking the tracks a little more. And that was (is) the main reason why I switched after long years of Linux (Suse) back to XP. But this old XP Laptop is most of the time not online. Mails etc. will be done on a Mac or a Linuxmachine ;-) Hajo 2008/11/12 Tim Reeves <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > I also run Win Xp SP2 on my laptop (work provided) which is where I usually > run Lilypond (typical .ly file compile times are about 5+/-2 seconds from my > memory), but I have a Vista machine (newer, wife uses mainly) and an older > machine running Ubuntu for now at home.
