MIDI Recorder For OS X?

2007-03-09 Thread Michael David Crawford
Is there a simple MIDI recorder available that works on Mac OS X? I compose for the keyboard by improvising. What I'd like is to just play, and have all my playing captured so I don't have to try to remember it. Then I could use midi2ly to convert it to Lilypond format. The fanciest thing I

Is this a bug? In the following code, the final note is not printed with a natural: \version "2.10" \header{ title = "Bug test" } \relative c' { cis c cis c' } Is this usual practice, because it is a different octave? I have tried this with the latest stable version, 2.10.20-1. Regards,
