LilyPond does not relate to American (or "scientific") pitch notation, to the degree where it goes unmentioned in standard documentation or even glossary. This is arguably a rather glaring omission. > The book said it would correct it if it was wrong but it just through > up an error saying unknown rhythm. LilyPond never uses numbers for pitches, so what you should have written was e='' (c' is C4, so e'' is E5). -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
