one of the projects i'm currently working on is rearranging a march from the american civil war for a modern marching band. the thing is -- the original version is written mainly for e-flat instruments -- a modern band (here in austria at least) has almost only b-flat instruments written in treble (tranposed to b-flat) and bass (natural in c) clef. i was just thinking it would be great if lily could do this transposing and generate lily-text. ok, i'm lazy, but i find it easier to read lily-text when its in the same key i'm thinking in. > You can use the lilypond transpose-command to get transposed music. Why > do you need it in lilypond format? for the reason that i prefer to have all the music i'm working with in lilypond in the same key, then transposing it to the different instruments from the common key. i was just wondering, that was all. :o) thanks, simon. -- Confucius say, man who live in glass house shower in basement. _______________________________________________ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
