Re: slightly OT question about midi rendering

2003-09-16 Thread Richard Schoeller
What I've found in regard to \tempo is that it either works in the \score block that is generating the midi or if it is referenced in every single staff. If you want the tempo to change in the middle of the piece you have to use the latter approach. I do this by having each staff include one or m

With 1.8.1 on Debian unstable when I place a cue part simultaneous with 'r1' for the instrument resting the whole rest is placed at the beginning of the measure. In all music I can remember the whole rest would be centered in the measure. I would guess that I can force this but I think this s

For what it's worth, I found a non-bloated midi renderer for OS X that lets you adjust the tempo. Still a GUI tool, but fine otherwise. Google "Mighty Midi". - Lucas On Mardi, sep 16, 2003, at 07:47 America/New_York, Terje Tjervaag wrote: On Sun, 14 Sep 2003 20:14:46 -0400 Lucas Gonze <[EMAI

Sorry to say that I tried moving the tempo command around and had no luck. It's possible that I missed whichever magic location is required, though, since my test file is from a template that I don't fully understand. I will try again with simpler Lilypond source. Actually, it's good news to

Why beams mean melismata? It is very strange for me that setting \property Staff.automaticMelismata = ##t \autoBeamOff c-[ d e-] will mean a melisma for the lyrics, but I think only c-( d e-) (i.e. slurs) should mean that. ___ Lilypond-user
