Hi, For a microtonal piece I'm working on, using a 43-tone scale, I would like to enter the music diatonically, so to speak, and tranform it to microtonal notation at a later stage. In other words, if I enter c I get the first note of the 43-tone scale, cis the second note, and if I enter c' I get the 13th note, and so forth. This may seem like an odd way of doing things, but I want to be able to quckly write down what I play using the microtonal scale, which I have layed out in this manner on a keyboard.
The notation I will use ultimately is the pitch with its deviation in cents (possibly also indicating the fraction) like this: g'^\markup { \column { \center-align { {"(+2)"} {"3/2"} } } } Do anyone have a suggestion of a good way to do this? Would it be possible to do the mapping using a custom scheme function (sorry if this is a stupid question but it's been a while since I tried out Lilyponds scheme interface)? Or would I be better off doing the transform using perl or some other 'external' scripting language Thanks also to all the developers and contributers for a great piece of software! best, /Henrik _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
