Hello folks,
I’m using musicxml2ly rather often, to convert MusicXML exported by PhotoScore
Ultimate.
It is quite usable and does a good job, with some limitations that you have to
live with:
- it does not handle well \repeat’s with more that 2 alternatives;
- upbeats (anacruses) are not nicely handled: you get a full mesure
with skips to fill it;
- it sometimes « loses » some lyrics on the way;
- and for some reason, the recent versions generate \stem* commands and
an annoying \pointAndClickOff, all of which I remove each time.
I thus recommend musicxml2ly as a useful tool for my purposes.
