Chip,
The important thing to understand about the \transpose function is that
the two note names following the \transpose represent the interval of
transposition. To transpose from music written in C to music appropriate
for a Bb instrument, you must end up with music in
As neuro's post shows, croma and croche are current names for what we in
the US call 'eighth-notes'. If you consider the shape of the note (black
head, stem, one flag), the previous name of this note was 'fusa'.
This name comes from common renaissance usage where the note shape was
used rarely. I
In tab, timing is remoted from the indications of notes: the timing is
relegated to the stems above the letters. Each stem indicates how long
it will be before the next stem (or implicit stem, since tabs often
leave off repeated time-value stems). There is no indication of when a
note is supposed t
Before this becomes something other than the trivial pursuit that it is,
let's lay it to rest once and for all.
Tablature is notation. Every dictionary and encyclopaedia I can access,

fact, can be considered a kind of tablitu
This is one that was solved for me a short time ago. There may be a
newer fix, but you don't say which version of lilypond you're using.
This one is good for 1.6.0 and on:

Uhhhn.
I was doing fairly well, between your response and Laura's and Rune's of

it's driving 9 hours that did it, but this change leaves me with a bunch
of questions I'd like to get cleared up before I post the source for

I really appreciate the help, Han-wen! Thank you! This was exactly what
I needed, the code fragment was enough to get the entire piece formatted
correctly, except for one minor problem...

Heyla!
I'm still struggling with some apparently fundamental, basic concepts.
The internals for Timing_engraver says that "In order to create
polyrhythmic music, this engraver should be removed from Score and
placed in Staff."
After considerable searching about the tutorial, manual, internals d
I downloaded the entire install yesterday and today (49.2K dialup) and

fine.
However.
I did have a few bugaboo's, and am too tired to research the entire

Stephen,
I have to admit to some confusion as to what you mean by transcribing
audio to notation. Are you talking about line-by-line transcription of
parts, or reduction to piano staff, done by listening to a recording? Or
are you assisting someone who 'composes' music but doesn't know how to

For what it's worth, when I took music theory, we were advised (and this
is in consonance with numerous music copy tutorial books, I can quote
references for some if needed) to keep stems in one direction when
passing through the middle line of the staff.
Thus, for a scale starting on the bottom
