Different MIDI Velocity settings for different instruments?

2022-09-16 Thread Petr Pařízek
Hello, I made a LilyPond score for piano and 2 flutes. When I examined the MIDI file, I discovered that all the Note On commands in the piano part had the Velocity parameter set to 90 while in both flute parts it was set constant at 62. May I know why different Velocity values are being used

This is not the question. It is about voice crossing bassline (left hand piano) and melodyline (double bass). That gives inversions, mostly not wanted. So these need to be identified. Met vriendelijke groet, Eef H.E. Weenink MBA > Op 16 sep. 2022 om 18:25 heeft Wols Lists het > volgende

Hi I have several devices to show the music on. Rather than try to adjust the size, I measure the visible area on the screen and tell LilyPond to use that as its paper size. I have a 27" screen, so for that, I set the paper size to half the width and get my PDF viewer to show two pages at once.

The person who set this cannot even get the E flats all having flats. Comparisons such as this are odious, for a start because Dorico uses SmuFL fonts and apart from Bravura there are now about 20 SMuFL fonts available, all quite different in terms of accidental shape and such details, so what
