Thank you for all your help on this. I now have an include file that does more or less what I want, and of course I can tweak in further in the future. David On Tue, 2019-07-16 at 15:11 +0200, Jean ABOU SAMRA wrote: > > \version "2.19.83"

Hi Jean That's great - I certainly now can get a greater range of dynamic than before. Thank you very much. But I find that altering values in 'my-instrument-equalizer-alist' has no effect at all. How can I adjust the relative volumes of 2 different instruments - say, 'violin' and 'cello'. (I

Hi David, Your problem is not with the instrument, it's with the dynamics themselves. The algorithm that affects a volume to a note does a scale between midiMinimumVolume and midiMaximumVolume that includes all dynamics. Mathematically, you can think: volume = midiMinimumVolume + (midiMaximumVol
