Re: How do I add a small fermata?

2011-06-09 Thread Jan-Peter Voigt
Good morning,

if you place the fermata as a MarkupTextScript event, you can shift it with 
self-alignment-X:

--snip--
  \once \override TextScript #'self-alignment-X = #-0.6
  c^\markup { \fontsize #0 \musicglyph #scripts.ufermata }
--snip--

If you concat the ufermata with other text, you can see, that its used extent 
does not apply to 
its visual extent. So it will not be centered, if you set self-alignment-X to 
0. With fonsize = #0 
and self-alignment-X = #-0.6 it looks quite well.

Cheers,
Jan-Peter

Re: How do I add a small fermata?

Hello again,

of course overriding Script is more convinient. Here are the examples:
--snip--
\version 2.14.0

\relative c'' {

\once \override TextScript #'self-alignment-X = #-0.7
c1_markup^\markup { \fontsize #-3 \musicglyph #scripts.ufermata }

\once \override Script #'font-size = #-3
\once \override Script #'padding = #0.3
 c_Script\fermata

 c_normal\fermata

}
--snip--

I prefer using \once \override over \override ... \revert. But thats a matter 
of taste I think ;-)
In the example above I added a little padding, wich lifts the fermata a little 
bit. And again thats a matter of tas

Cheers, Jan-Peter

Since you're removing the beam stencil and therefore stopping displaying any

This does not really make sense.  A chord is something happening in a

Yes, that's a valid feature request in my eyes (actually, I'll need them too 
for my own editions).

 For example the slashed 6 where the slash is only in the upper part 

The slashed 6 in your example is apparently a very old variation. In most 
modern editions the slash is diagonally through the upper arc of the 6.

 or the
 slashed 4 where the slash goes vertically through the right side of the 4,
 creating a 4+.
 http://www.musiktheorie-aktuell.de/tutorials/regola/Hahn_petiteSixte.png .
 6 in the lower row, 4+ in the upper.
 
 There are other signs like this, but if anyone knows at all what I'm
 talking about he or she will surely know the rest.

Basically, a complete set of slashed digits that I encountered so far are:

2+ with the vertical slash through the extended horizontal line of the 2
4+ with the vertical slash through the extended horizontal line of the 4
5+ with the vertical slash through the extended horizontal line of the 5
6+ with the slash diagonally (left top to right bottom through the upper curve 
of the 6

See also: http://www.robertkelleyphd.com/FiguredBass.pdf

Note, however, that these slashed 6 digits were used mainly only in hand-
written scores and in modern printed scores. 

Many printed scores of the 19th centuries have the slashes for the 6 like 
lilypond. See e.g. page 8 of Mozart's Benedictus sit Deus, Alte Mozart Ausgabe 
(Wolfgang Amadeus Mozarts Werke, Serie III: Kleinere geistliche Gesangwerke. 
Leipzig: Breitkopf  Härtel, 1880. Plate W.A.M. 117.):

Mozart_Werke_Breitkopf_Serie_03_KV117.pdf

(The 4+ is printed as described above, see e.g. p.13)


On the other hand, some printed scores of the 19th century have the slashes as 
you suggest them
E.g. line 2 measure 4, or line 6 measure 1 of:
http://imslp.info/files/imglnks/usimg/e/ef/IMSLP32559-PMLP74139-
Eybler_Graduale_DiesSanctificatus_HV61_Org.pdf


I have encountered the 5+ only once:
http://216.129.110.22/files/imglnks/usimg/0/0b/IMSLP32525-PMLP74102-
Eybler_SperateInDeo_Org.pdf

No, but it would be great to have it.

You could try using a CueVoice context..this makes the notes in that voice the

I'm currently updating the documentation so there is nothing that useful there

Re: Removing manual beams when multiplying note values

2011-06-09 Thread Nicholas Moe
I would like to keep the option of using either system. And after
further thought, I wouldn't want to remove every beam since the few
sixteenth notes I have would be converted to eighth notes, and I would
want to keep those beams. I did a search for 16 and created these
commands to place before and after those instances:

removeBeams = \override Beam #'stencil = ##f
showBeams = \override Beam #'stencil = ##t

If I'm compiling without multiplying note values, I can set these to
null and get back to where I began.

Since I'm working off of a score with modernised rhythms, I'm content
with doing my compilation checks without multiplying. After everything
is typed in, I can switch on the multiplication and just ignore the
warnings, since I already know I got everything else right!

songs has 96 bars (measures).  At bar 96 (last cord is an cross staff arpeggio.

QUESTIONS:
1.  the midi output does not produce arpeggio sound. How can I fixed it.
2.  I produce a midi output for each voice + piano.  I want to produce the 
voice 
sound track is louder than the piano.  I use the following
\include articulate.ly

but I cannot produce the effect I want.  How can I resolved this?

3.  How can I install lilypond 2.14.0 for Ubuntu 10.10 so that frescobaldi will

problem with cross-staff stems

2011-06-09 Thread David Nalesnik
Hi all,

I’m having a difficulty involving cross-staff stems, and I wonder if
someone can help me.

In the example below, I would like to have the quarter-note stems
joined from one staff to the other, with the stem direction of the
eighth-note figure pointing up.  (Down would look better in my
example, but I do need this particular arrangement for a more complex
passage.) Trouble is, the quarter-note stems in the lower staff will
not extend beyond the beam and the stems won’t join.  (Varying the
stem-length override just pushes the staves further apart.)  The
attached image shows the problem.

Replacing the \voiceOne in the lower staff with \stemUp has the same result.

Does anyone know how to get what I’m after?

%%%
\version 2.14.0

top = \relative c' {
  
{ r4 e e e }
{ s4
  \change Staff = bottom
  \override  Stem #'cross-staff = ##t
  \override Stem #'length = #20
  \override  NoteColumn #'ignore-collision = ##t
  c, c c
}
  
}

bottom = \relative c' {
  \clef bass
  \voiceOne % similar results with \voiceThree or \stemUp
  g8 a g a g a g a
}

\new PianoStaff 
  \new Staff = top {
\top
  }
  \new Staff = bottom {
\bottom
  }
  
%%%

Thanks,

David

 in the lower row, 4+ in the upper.
 
 There are other signs like this, but if anyone knows at all what I'm talking
 about he or she will surely know the rest.
 
 Anyone created such a set? If not, how can I do it on my own? (Publishers
 will)

There are multiple ways to do it.  One is to create new glyphs for the font,
using metafont.  This would probably be done by modifying the file
mf/feta-numbers.mf.

However, since bass figures can accept markups, perhaps the simplest way is
to just create a markup that does what you want, and use that for a bass
figure. 

Alternatively, some new figured bass properties could be added to select the
style, instead of making new glyphs or markups.  This would require changes
to scm/translation-functions.scm (the function format-bass-figure).

Alternatively, a new figured-bass formatter procedure could be written in
Scheme, and could be used  with

#(set! figuredBassFormatter my-new-figured-bass-format-procedure).

Carl

Re: problem with cross-staff stems

2011-06-09 Thread Janek Warchoł
Hi David,

2011/6/9 David Nalesnik dnale...@umail.iu.edu:
 In the example below, I would like to have the quarter-note stems
 joined from one staff to the other, with the stem direction of the
 eighth-note figure pointing up.  (Down would look better in my
 example, but I do need this particular arrangement for a more complex
 passage.) Trouble is, the quarter-note stems in the lower staff will
 not extend beyond the beam and the stems won’t join.  (Varying the
 stem-length override just pushes the staves further apart.)  The
 attached image shows the problem.

Do you want something like in the attachment?
I suggest this code:

%%%
\version 2.13.61 %didn't check it in 2.14.0. but i don't anticipate
any surprises

top = \relative c' {

Re: V2.14.0 - midi volume midi arpeggio

2011-06-09 Thread Janek Warchoł
Hi Ming,

2011/6/9 MING TSANG tsan...@rogers.com:
 Thank you for the release of 2.14.0.  I install this version on to my window
 7 pc and I am running jedit with lilypondtool.

 I coded a song with S A T B (seperately) with piano (right + left hands).The
 songs has 96 bars (measures).  At bar 96 (last cord is an cross staff
 arpeggio.

 QUESTIONS:
 1.  the midi output does not produce arpeggio sound. How can I fixed it.
 2.  I produce a midi output for each voice + piano.  I want to produce the
 voice sound track is louder than the piano.  I use the following
     \include articulate.ly
     and
     \new voice {
         \set Staff.midiMinimumVolume = #0.2
         \set Staff.midiMaximumVolume = #0.6
     }
 but I cannot produce the effect I want.  How can I resolved this?

Did these two work in 2.12.3?

 3.  How can I install lilypond 2.14.0 for Ubuntu 10.10 so that frescobaldi
 will use 2.14.0 instead of now using 2.12.3? I download v2.14.0 for linux
 and it is a .sh file. How can I use it for install?

Open Terminal (shell, command line - the black window in which you can
type commands) and type

cd WRITE-HERE-THE-PATH-TO-THE-DIRECTORY-WHERE-DOWNLOADED-FILE-IS
(press return key)
sh lilypond-2.14.0-OS-TYPE.sh
(press return key)
and LilyPond should be installed.

Hope this helps,

In Frescobaldi clic on Setting  Configure Frescobaldi, choose LilyPond

You'll see the lilypond binaries recognized by Frescobaldi.
I think that Frescobaldi sees automatically any lilypond binary which is
in the $PATH.  Otherwise you have to add it manually.
If you install the .sh file, the binary will be in your $PATH for sure.

You can choose the default binary to use.
A pretty cool feature is the automatic selection of the right lilypond
binary (installed on your system) based on the \version statement in the

Consistent bar number positioning

2011-06-09 Thread Nicholas Moe
I am writing a piece which requires lyrics above and below the staff.
I would like to have regular measure numbers right above the bar-line
(i.e. always approx. 0.75 staff lines above the staff). Ideally I
would like to make the lyrics invisible to the bar numbers.

 I have been unable to find a way to consistently do this throughout
the piece. Even doing an #'extra-offset tweak doesn't work, because
the starting point is not always the same, and in the actual piece of
music, the starting point is higher or lower on each system depending
on how the notes are in that system.

Does anyone have an idea of how to do this? Is there a way to make the
lyrics invisible to the bar numbers? I have an example set up below.

Nick Moe

 BEGIN EXAMPLE

\version 2.14.0

\score {
\new Staff = staff {

\new Voice = music {
\override Score.BarNumber #'break-visibility = 
#'#(#f #t #t)
\set Score.barNumberVisibility = 
#(every-nth-bar-number-visible 1)
\override Score.BarNumber #'Y-offset = #-1
\repeat unfold 8 { a'1 }
}
\new Lyrics \with { alignAboveContext = staff } 
\lyricsto music {
\lyricmode {
ter -- ram tu -- o ad hoc e -- nim
