problem with polyphony

2007-12-25 Thread Stefan Thomas
Dear Lilypond-Users,
when I write something like the below quoted music I get lots of
error warning, but I dont know why. It must have to Do with the
polyphony and the voices, but I don't understand it.
Could You please support me?
Thanks,
Stefan

Organ pedal marks and substitution

2007-12-25 Thread Stig Junge
Does anyone have a suggestion as how to show substitution of feet in an
organ pedal voice? It could be when shifting from right toe to right heel on
the same note, or it could be substituting the left toe with the right toe,
still on the same note.

Regards Stig Junge

Re: svg Inskscape Trouble

Inkscape sometimes opens files disregarding any pageformats or such,
presenting things zoomed out to an invisible scale.  Try zooming in.

Lilypond can't work while you are working: since input and processing are going 
on in separate programs, Lilypond has to do all the processing while you wait 
and stare at your desktop background. A system that integrates data entry and 
graphical output in the same program can do some of the work "behind the 
scenes", while you're still writing the latter parts of the file. But Lilypond 
is designed differently, so its score layout machinery isn't even running while 
you're working on a file.

For longer files, you can reduce your wait by only processing the part you're 
currently working on; see "Skipping corrected music" in the manual (section 
10.5 in the manual for version 2.10).

The first file you (successfully) process on any computer will take even longer 
because the first time Lilypond runs it prepares the fonts it will use. This 
should only happen once; later runs will be faster because they use the cached 
font information which was generated that first time.

I can't really help you with Schenker graphs -- never used one, can't read 
them. Note however that Lilypond is NOT good at Schenkerian graphs. In fact, 
Lilypond doesn't do Schenker at all. But Lilypond is good at Plain Old 
Notation, and P.O.N. can be hammered into Schenker graphs by overriding 
Lilypond's ideas about e.g. what noteheads to use, where to put beams, whether 
to print stems etc.

This is what Kris Shaffer did and wrote about in that article two years ago. In 
his opinion, twisting Lilypond's arm until it produces Schenker is easier (or 
at least more straightforward) than trying the same with any graphical music 
typesetter which, like Lilypond, is made for Plain Old Notation and doesn't 
know about Schenkerian analysis.

In other words, you can't write a Lilypond input file that describes a Schenker 
graph and have that processed into a graphical file. You have to write a file 
that describes the "ordinary" notation, then add in all the ways in which the 
Schenker graph differs from that.

This is why the first replies to your questions about Schenker graphs said 
little more than "learn to do ordinary notation first" -- Schenker is not a 
function of the software, it's an advanced step you can take once you are at 
least slightly familiar with the software.


Hope this clarifies a thing or two. With solstice-related greetings

No-one?

{s}'s were inserted for simulating final score purpose.

Question: stemlets, tuplets, and beams

2007-12-25 Thread Casey Hale
Hi,

I'm just learning to use Lilypond (v. 2.10.33), 
so please forgive me if these are questions with obvious 
answers - I may have just overlooked 
things in the documentation:

1) Is there a way to create "stemlets" 
(i.e. short stems unconnected to noteheads) 
when beams extend over rests?

2) When creating tuplets, 
is there a way to specify that 
brackets always appear, whether 
or not the beam is complete?

3) How do I specify the subdivision 
of 16ths (or 32nds or 64ths) beneath 
a tuplet beam (without breaking 
things up into separate beats)?

Thanks for your help and for the great software!

-Casey
