A lot of things look at pitches. With Midi, it's just an offset to the final output. You could do stuff like \transposition #(ly:make-pitch 0 0 3/100) and that has a reasonable interpretation (no idea whether the way pitches are implemented will result in reasonable Midi, though). With visuals, not so much. And it's not just an "offset": a whole arrangement of notename and accidentals and custom engravers might depend on them. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
