Thanks; it works wonders. Now that I know how to do all that, I'm wondering, can you notes three fourths of the way flat or sharp? Let's say C three fourths sharp would be like cis minus half of an eh, if that makes any sense. In other words, can we have eighth-tones? Like C plus three eighth steps, I mean. And . . . can you make key signatures for those? I have an Indian whistle that seems to be in the key of E three fourths flat mixolydian, or nigh unto it. It would be interesting to be able to replicate these sounds on a midi, and to represent them on sheet music.

[...] when I define a key signature, the sharps/flats don't apply for the note in every octave--just the octave I specify. Is there a way to make it apply to all octaves without having loads of symbols on the key signature?There is an alternative format for defining the signature, shown in this variation of your example: \new Staff { \set Staff.keySignature = #'( ((1 . 4) . 2) ((1 . 1) . 2) ) b4 c' dis' e' f' gis' a' b' c'' dis'' e'' f'' gis'' a'' b'' \set Staff.keySignature = #'( (4 . 2) (1 . 2) ) b4 c' dis' e' f' gis' a' b' c'' dis'' e'' f'' gis'' a'' b'' } You can read all the settings there: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.7/Documentation/user/lilypond-internals/Key_005fengraver.html#Key_005fengraver Best, Gilles _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
