Historically, that's been true. However, we found that there is some
interest in better MIDI output.

Getting the MIDI backend to quality level of the notation backend is a
task I'd happily pursue, if sufficient funds are raised.  I already
have a pledge for EUR 750, but that is not enough.  My rough estimate
is that I could do it for EUR 3500.


So, if you are interested in getting

 a better MIDI backend

with natural sounding performance, then you're welcome to chip in and

 Donate money

to support this effort.

Hi list, Han-Wen,

I'll chip in, and let you know in a private mail how much...

I have type-set scores for my choir with Lilypond, using the Midi output to
generate CDs and MP3s so ppl can study at home, when they don't play
an instrument themselves. Having an easy way to generate different mixes
for the different voices would be a nice option to have (+6dB sopranos, -6dB
the other voices, so that the sopranos can hear their voice 'over' the other
voices).

Cheers!

Try midi2mg, which comes with midge, and do it with midge.

It is GNU.  A bit of integration would be very welcome.  daveA
