Hi David,

> There may be incentive to synchronize the contents of those files.

Yes, that’s the part I’m currently most interested in: synchronizing a Lilypond 
input file (or set of files) with a DAW file (or set of files) via a MIDI file 
(or set of files).

At the very least, I’d like to hear if anyone has worked out (or even 
attempted) a workflow like the following:

1. Write a Lilypond input file.

2. Use Lilypond to generate a MIDI file or files (e.g., one per staff or 
instrument/staff-group).

3. Load those MIDI file(s) into a DAW.

4. Make edits to the DAW file (e.g., add a tempo track, modify volumes, etc.).

and then [this is the critical part!]

5. Make a change in the Lilypond input file.

6. Use Lilypond to overwrite the associated MIDI files.

7. See the changes reflected instantaneously in the DAW, while affecting 
("ruining"/"reverting") the least number of changes made in the DAW in Step #4.

Thanks,
Kieren.
