Eluze's snippet shows the problem: tablature produces no midi output. Looking in performer-init.ly, there are two features which prevent this: 1. note-events for tablature are swallowed: 83 \context { 84 \type "Performer_group" 85 \name "TabVoice" 86 \consists "Swallow_performer" 87 } 2. The TabStaff context is a separate Performer_group, so it doesn't inherit the default performers set in Staff: 94 \context { 95 \type "Performer_group" 96 \name "TabStaff" 97 \accepts "TabVoice" 98 \defaultchild "TabVoice" 99 } I can't see any reason why midi should be disallowed here, so I've just pushed a fix (together with a default midiInstrument setting). Oldwhtman, until these changes make their way into the next stable release, you can use the following \midi block: \midi { \context { \Staff \name TabStaff \alias Staff \defaultchild TabVoice midiInstrument = #"acoustic guitar (nylon)" } \context { \Voice \name TabVoice } } Regards, Neil _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
