but rather a MIDI-to-sound problem.
Yes. That's Right.
That's actually what I was asking.
How can we make lilypond's midi file play in different tuning systems, in
different pitchs, and/or in a flexible way, (e.g. when I would like all the
major 3rds of every major chord in a piece -- so it's not a fixed certain
notes, but rather, a condition for certain notes -- to be played "just
intonation" or otherwise tuned.)
(Before my final decision of how the pitches should be tuned or played, so
to be heard.)
Actually, I was trying to convince my ears first that,
"the major 3rds of every major chord in a tonic piece should be played a
little bit lower -- as 'just intonation' tuned, rather than 12-equal
temperamented," and hoping Lilypond's midi could play that way.
So, it it possible?
If so, how?

2008/2/10, neuro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Is it possible, for example, after a piece (of lilypond code) is written,
I'd like to hear it played, from Lilypond midi,
with different tuning systems, (and perhaps with different A pitch, if I
prefer),
or, whereas it is said that the major 3rd (of any given major chord, in a
tonic piece,) should be lowered (from 12-equal temperament point of
"listening"), I'd like to experience the difference early, as lilypond
midi
plays.
If so, how?
Where do I put the n-ET things in code?
If you want to hear the very same lilypond score in several tunings,
this is not a lilypond related problem, but rather a MIDI-to-sound
problem. MIDIs for Plain Old, "diatonic look" music still can be
generated by lilypond whatever the tuning you prefer to hear in,
provided that each notated pitch has fixed frequency (or in other
words: every note has a fixed pitch)
So you could try to investigate the problem in the synthesizer side.
For example, most mid- and high- range digital pianos have selectable
tuning. Therefore, it is easy for them to play the same sequence with
different tunings.
