Hi Guy,
Your problem is that you did not specify the language, then it
defaults to Dutch.
I guess you want:
\transpose bes, f { ... notes ... }
but:
\transpose f c' { }
does the same, both move you up exactly one kwint/scale.
Or:
\language "english" % only once at the
beginning of the file
\transpose bf, f { ... notes ... }
Mind the ' and , in these examples!!!!!
Regards,
Wim.

I'm arranging some church hymns for six-part instruments, Flute, 2
Violins, 2 F Horns, 1 cello.
Hymn is in F major. Arrangement is notated in LP in F major. How do
I get the Horn parts correctly engraved in the proper key? I have
tried
\transpose f c'
and
\transpose bf f'
and
\transpose c f
and various other combinations. Reading the manual it looks like it
should be
\transpose bf f'
But no matter what I select the midi output is horribly wrong. The
midi output is only correct if I comment out the \transpose
directive. The midi output clearly changes when I use the \transpose
directive, so it seems as if midi is being altered by using
\transpose. Unfortunately it's being altered incorrectly.
Thanks,
Guy
