Re: Who uses Lilypond?

I do! I have three main uses for LilyPond. First, I do a little bit of transcription/arranging/composing. I've just completed a Brass Band arrangement of `The Entertainer' which I found on Mutopia. If anyone's interested, let me know (Lily7pond makes it look great, but can't make it sound any b

Re: Small example images?

defective/wrong midi file

Hi! I just started looking at lilypond - seems fantastic !!! Just a note: I looked/listened to the example files. It seems (I'm no expert) that the midi file for Mozart's "Konzert Nr 3 Es dur" does not match the sheet music (or the other way round). Also, this particular midi file does not execut

markup in lyrics?

I'm trying to typeset more of the songs from my college songbook and I'm running across some problems. One problem is that sometimes there are different words sung for different verses... One line runs: ... zum, zum, zum. {But / For /And} here by the fire ... Where the But, For and And shou

variables in lilypond-book

Can we use variable options for lilypond-book? For example, \documentclass{book} \newcommand{\foo}{staffsize=18,indent=1.3\cm} \begin{document} \lilypondfile[\foo}{bar.ly} \end{document} (the answer is probably no, but there's no harm in asking...) Cheers, - Graham ___

what issues should I consider in publishing transcriptions?

I have about 70 transcriptions I and a band-mate have done of Mexican music, in the Cumbia, Banda, Ranchera, Zapatiado, Quebradita styles. What issues should I consider if I were to pursue selling these transcriptions? I was thinking via the web and maybe a 'fake' book, or both. What are the le

Re: \espressivo

Hi Will, being the culprit for committing the \espressivo sign added i am pretty sure that this does not affect midi output. It makes a <> sign centered above/below the note as is done with \accent \fermata, or what ever. It might be interesting to tweak that sign more for individual sizes or

Re: who uses lilypond

4 main uses for me: - typesetting old scores (mostly 18th c.) to make them free via Mutopia. - Quick transcription of parts, for personal use (like alto -> G_8 clef) - Writing down some original music on paper (so far, it has mostly been songs from a Jewish folk music band I'm playing in) - Amusem

Hello everybody, Has anybody got lilypond working with the current tetex-beta? I am working on MacOS 10.3.6 and for the moment I can use Matthias Neeracher's fink port, but this means that I have to keep two tetex systems and juggle a lot of environment variables because the port is based on stab

Hi, If you are running a windows server, that could be a problem indeed. I don't have any experience with it, thought I think it might be possible to run the lilypond-book scripts from the cygwin environment. The PHP scripts is a very easy one. It consists of an exec call of a fixed .ly file. e

Hi, In the lilypond documentation a script is mentioned, called lilypond-book. You can use it to create combinations of text and music. For more info see: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.2/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/Integrating-text-and-music.htm or use the integrating text and music links
