If you care a lot about how it sounds then you'll want to import the
MIDI into a DAW and make your adjustments there.
If you are content with just the MIDI sounds then what I have done in
the past is to make a copy of the LilyPond file and make all the
adjustments I want to the dynamics on that

Hello everybody,
I am using LilyPond 2.23 but the problem I'm going to describe is
happening with older LilyPonds back 2.20.
I am running Linux (Pop_OS! 20.10 which is basically Ubuntu 20.10). It
is a relatively new installation on a computer I bought a few months
ago.
Here is the basic code:
Hello Jean,
That works basically like I was hoping it would! Thank you very much
for the effort you put into this. I suppose the only issue is that it
spits out a warning when a tilde is used: "r8~ 16" but still prints it
out properly.
I know absolutely nothing about Scheme coding in LilyPond so
about the way you’re working with your software to be able

Hello Andrew,
Right, so I'm not asking for two rests to actually be tied. I was just
hoping that the behavior of a lone duration value would repeat the
rest right before it and not skip back till it finds a note.
For example, instead of {c4 r4 16} resulting in "C, rest, C", it would
be "C, rest,

The following:
{c4 16}
produces a quarter note C followed by a 16th note C
The following:
{c4 16 r4 16}
Produces a quarter C, 16th C, quarter rest, 16th C
I had hoped that the last 16th would be a rest.
This came about while trying out this code:
{c4~ 16 r4~ 16}
which produces the tie

It works in some cases but not when that last pitch it tied to
previous notes (see attached pdf). When they are not tied this works
well. In my use-case, I have Lilypond break notes up

And of course KDE is nice. And if you use Kubuntu then it's installed by
default.

That is amazing work! I don't have the time to experiment with it right now
but I will do so tonight and let you know tomorrow the results. But based
on your example this looks like it will be perfect. I think the negative
numbers for the bassa is a good choice as that was what I was imagining in
will look over the code and see if I can't figure it out for myself.
Thanks!

I ended up creating my own solution to use in my code that generates
scores. Unfortunately it doesn't really translate into anything usable by
anyone else. Likewise I created my own staff switching method as well so
that rests would be printed in the other staff.
Still, I think the automatic
I could see where this could be useful when sharing Lilypond files. Since
we don't all use the same language setting things can get a bit confusing.
But it seems like this should be something that one's editor does. Like I
type my Lilypond file as I normally do it and then hit M-x
This is probably asking a lot, but is there a way to have ottava markings
used automatically? It sounds like a complicated function since you'd also
want it to be able to span consecutive notes but being able to specify when
(as in how many ledger lines above the staff) it would kick in would be
The project I'm working on right now also automatically generates music and
I ran into the same problem. Here's what my software automatically
generates now to deal with it:
\score {
\new PianoStaff
\new Staff = upper
\new Voice = first \with {\remove Note_heads_engraver \consists
Is there a reason not to use Completion_heads_engraver all the time or
atleast as a default?
I think the expectation is that most composers most of the time do not want
notes split up automatically as it probably means a mistake was made when
entering the notes. Basically they'll split when they
There is a PPA so I could upgrade quite easily, if necessary,
Even easier and much better is to just download it from Lilypond directly.
It is packaged in such a way as to make installation and upgrading on
Ubuntu (and all Linux distros) super duper easy. This way you can have the
latest versions
In the following code Lilypond correctly creates the tie to the note even
when it's left out (a tie just to a duration):
\version 2.19.13
\score{
\new Staff {d4~ 16}
}
But if you try to do this with a rest:
\version 2.19.13
\score{
\new Staff {r4~ 16}
}
It prints a note (middle C) instead

*(With the small exception that the Completion_rest_engraver places rests
irrespective of metric structure, which makes it hard to read. But that’s
another issue)
