There are several programs that support MIDI input (including USB/MIDI) that also export to Lilypond. Some of them still a little experimental and/or buggy. Examples: Rosegarden, Muse Score (mscore), NtEd, Canorus, NoteEdit. Also Lilypond source editors like Jedit/LilypondTool and Frescobaldi support inputting notes via MIDI. Frescobaldi uses a tool called "Rumor" for that. Using just Rumor you can play your MIDI keyboard, and you will see the notes you play on screen in Lilypond syntax. Lilypond is just a program that creates a printable, viewable, or playable(=MIDI) score from a text-based inputfile. Nothing more and nothing less. Direct MIDI/USB support is not relevant. That's what the third party tools that I mentioned are for. -- Martin _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
