I was frustrated only this week by the problems of getting a MIDI file into lilypond via midi2ly, so when I got a newsletter from Noteflight <http://www.noteflight.com/> saying that they now have MIDI import, I did a quick test.
It turns out to be fairly simple to import the MIDI file into noteflight, export a MusicXML file from noteflight, and import the MusicXML into lilypond via musicxml2ly. The result has different problems from the one produced by the midi2ly route, but they may be easier for some people to deal with. I have blogged about this in more detail at <http://www.serpentpublications.org/laymusic/?p=1531>. The noteflight score that comes out of the MIDI import step is at <http://www.noteflight.com/scores/view/355f8b7e0db88c42ae07d87a1be593c5bb3d7bd6>. -- Laura (mailto:lcon...@laymusic.org) (617) 661-8097 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139 http://www.laymusic.org/ http://www.serpentpublications.org I believe in hell because the theological virtue of faith makes me believe in hell, but the theological virtue of charity makes me exercise the theological virtue of hope that no one is there!
