Me, too. Thanks very much for digging into it. I confirmed that LilyPondTool's player doesn't have the problem on OS X. QMidi also seems ok. It's kind of wild that there are no reports when I search for "QuickTime midi instrument change delay" etc. Guess most Mac users don't listen very closely :-) Cheers, Mike _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
