Thanks Carl, I have solved the problem last night by adding midi tags to all the problematic instruments (bassoons, trumpet I, cello and bass). I don't know how Lilypond calculates music values, but I've never heard such issue in other musical notation softwares. Regards Haipeng _

Special tempo indication in new version of lilypond

2010-07-11 Thread - Hu Haipeng
Hello, I know how to write special tempo indication like 4= ca120 in old versions of lilypond. But since the new ones have included \tempo text + tempo function, I don't know how to adjust it. Moreover, the indication is quite different from the snippet. At the end of my overture, there are bo

Hello, When I extract the timpani part from my overture (I have not made cues), a fatal problem comes--spacing issues. No matter what staff size I set, the warning "couldn't fit music on page" always appears. How to sove it? Regards Haipeng a simplified version (without rehearsal and top texts)

Thanks. But when I used 30, my full score was fattened from 34 pages to 38, and there are many warnings saying (de)crescendo too small, in fact they are not small; and a programming error in harp part in 2.13.24 increased to several: "no note heads for the line spanner on neighbor line? Confused

I have figured out how to achieve, but... but you must do a complete different score for midi. If the two sounds within a line uses different soundfont, you must divide it into two lines. Also, please map the midi instrument to the correct presets of your soundfont, thus, 001 is not always piano

As I said, the midi is 1) not well balanced, and 2) too concret on notes, but without required information for accurate dynamics and KS (keyswitch). Therefore, Sibelius will treat all pizz as arco, all solo violin passages as tutti, and all muted brass as open. Moreover, the machine-gun sounded
