Oh, yes, that's much simpler. ...however, while documenting it, I noticed a problem that makes the feature nearly useless: the speed of MIDI time depends on the tempo, which isn't set until the beginning of the score, so the extra time is at some other tempo (probably 4 = 120). It might still be useful to align multiple tracks generated by Lilypond (but why not generate them as one file?) or as input to other programs that want time in MIDI ticks rather than seconds, but it's not much good for aligning the MIDI to either musical or real time. _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
