As I indicated in my previous reply, this depends on the MIDI player, and accompanying data used for rendering the sound of the selected instrument: If this data is missing, that instrument's sound cannot be generated. > If anyone can tell me if I'm missing something it would be greatly helpful. > I have attached one file for your convenience. I tried it on my computer. E.g. for the "timidity" midi player, the vibraphone is absent, while with "fluidsynth" it's there. As a workaround, for "timidity", you can modify its configuration file; when you see the following message in the output: --- No instrument mapped to tone bank 0, program 11 - this instrument will not be heard --- then you can create an appropriate line in "/etc/timidity/freepats.cfg" which would reference one of the existing "patch" (i.e. sound) file. [Of course, you still won't have the sound of the "vibraphone", but at least you can keep the reference to the correct midi instrument in the Lilypond file.] Best, Gilles _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
