Re: Bend

[Thomas Richter]

I guess what you are looking for is the brassBend glyph defined in SMuFL 
compliant fonts like Bravura or Ekmelos 
 with codepoint 
U+E5E3.  And it is one of the few musical symbols which is also defined 
in Unicode with codepoint U+1D189.





\version "2.24.0"

#(define-markup-command (brassBend layout props) ()
  #:properties ((font-size 0))
  (interpret-markup layout
    (cons
  `((font-name . "Ekmelos")
    (font-size . ,(+ font-size 5)))
  props)
    (ly:wide-char->utf-8 #xE5E3)))

{ c'' ^ \markup \brassBend }

Hello friends,

I thought this was recently covered, but I haven't been able to find

I'm looking for an articulation to add that will indicate a note is
supposed to bend down, before bending back up again. Usually I see it
looking something like an upside-down fermata, without the dot. I can
do this in Musescore easily, but I've never found a satisfactory bend
like this in Lilypond. I have a script for a scoop, and I know about
\bendBefore, but not this one.

you could use ekmelily

with a new file "ly/ekmel-he.ily" for JI in HE notation as described in 
the LSR example  . It requires a 
SMuFL compliant font like Ekmelos 
 or Bravura 
 and the main include file 
"ly/ekmel-main.ily"; e.g.



\version "2.24.0"
\include "ekmel-he.ily"

\fixed c'' {

}


See "samples/he.ly" for all c... notenames (the other names are equivalent).

This is a first attempt to support JI in ekmelily with solely "he" 
notation and a single set of notenames (Dutch), and alias names like 
"es" are missing yet.

Re: markup for circular bowing

[Thomas Richter]

Hi Orm,

maybe the smufl compliant ekmelos 
 font is useful for 
you. It also defines some Unicode glyphs like circle and arc arrows. The 
following (similar to Pierre's 
 
proposal) uses the path from ekmelos.svg of the Clockwise gapped circle 
arrow (U+27F3) which is maybe more appropriate than the 
stringsScrapeCircularClockwise glyph (U+EE88) in smufl.



\version "2.24.0"

You can use esmuflily 
 to draw smufl 
glyphs in Lilypond as in the following sample. But in case of svg 
backend it embeds the codepoint of a smufl glyph, not the path. So you 
will not obtain a stand-alone svg file.



\version "2.24.0"
\include "esmufl.ily"

{ c''^\markup \halign #-0.5 \ekm-char ##x27F3 }

Maybe esmuflily <http://www.ekmelic-music.org/en/extra/esmuflily.htm> is 
useful for you. The following requires no extra font and achieves 
horizontal beams in two ways: manual beams and an empty tremolo symbol

or with a SMuFL compliant font like Bravura or Ekmelos:

Re: Help with some lyrics gymnastics

[Thomas Richter]

Hello again,

a few more ideas:

My solution uses the TextSpanner which works for two or more notes. But 
for a single note (syllable), a function like your lyricsWithOption is 
more suitable. The following draws the separating line in the proper length.


%%-

#(define-markup-command (stacked-lyric-single layout props one two)
  (string? string?)
  (let* ((lyric (interpret-markup layout props 
(make-stacked-lyric-markup one two)))

 (width (interval-length (ly:stencil-extent lyric X
    (ly:stencil-add
  lyric
  (make-line-stencil 0.1 0 0.8 width 0.8

%%-

It can be used in the Lyrics context, e.g.

\markup \stacked-lyric-single "you" "God the Father"


For another line thickness, change the first argument of 
make-line-stencil (0.1) and include the following for the TextSpanner in 
the startStackedLyric function with a 10 times larger value:


\once \override TextSpanner.thickness = #1.0


For a proper layout in case of a TextSpanner line break, it could be 
necessary to set the properties of left-broken and right-broken in 
bound-details.



All the best,

Thomas

Note that \stopStackedLyric requires a separate note in the NullVoice. 
Its note value affects the length to the right of the horizontal line.

Re: markup accidentals for a microtonal system

[Thomas Richter]

Hello Nike,

following your submission I extended Ekmelily to support now arbitrary 
markup (not only glyphs from an external font); see 
www.ekmelic-music.org/en/extra/ekmelily.htm 
<http://www.ekmelic-music.org/en/extra/ekmelily.htm> (version 3.11).


Maybe this is a solution for you. It defines accidentals for eighth 
tones with glyphs from LilyPond's Emmentaler font and additional markup, 
and it also works for midi output.  It uses notenames defined in 
"ekmel-48.ily", but I could also define a new set of notenames with 
suffix "et" for eighth tones upward, however, I'm not sure how to name 
downward alterations.



\version "2.24.0"
\include "ekmel-48.ily"

arrow = \markup {
    \override #'(thickness . 1.45)
    \overlay {
    \draw-line #'(0.01 . -2)
    \draw-line #'(-0.3 . -0.7)
    \draw-line #'(0.3 . -0.7)
    }}

Hello,

Quarter-tones (24ET) work very well and use the most used symbols.

Is there any implementation of eighth-tone (48ET) with arrows for the
8th-tone alterations, or even better, 72ET?

I know "makam.ly" could be a good start, I'm just wondering if anyone
has done it already.

Thank you!


I wrote an extension for 72ET "Ekmelily":
http://www.ekmelic-music.org/en/extra/ekmelily.htm
It uses by default ins own font (Ekmelos) but it should work with e.g. 
Bravura, too.
