Re: [Spam] Re: Status and future of abc2ly

[Andrew Bernard]

Hi Laura,

I was so disappointed with the complete mess the current abc2ly makes of
Irish tunes from the vast repository at thesession.org that I started
looking into this. The others mentioned that using abc2xml and then using
musixxml2ly supplied with lilypond is the way forward. I found this to be
logical, from the programming point of view of using a single intermediary
interface (MusicXML), and it works great, except for messed up header
blocks, which I just delete and hand edit.

It's such a good solution that I have decided to attack the musicxml2ly
problem by finally getting around to doing the lilypond wholesale uplift of
the ancient python version, which would offer many benefits in many areas.
A big project, but I am starting on it.

So I don't think it matters at all if the current abc2ly goes away. There's
a good current solution presently.

Andrew

Hi All,


My name is Yakir and I'm a pianist / composer based in Paris.

I am very new to LilyPond, so please pardon me if my question is

I write modern classical music in which each instrument has its' own
separate tempo.  My question is, do you think it's possible to write
something like that in LilyPond using separate tempo commands for each
staff?

I'm pretty sure you will not be able to accomplish this easily in LilyPond.  It 
is probably possible by using scaled durations.

Lilypond's basic timing is done in beats.  Beats are grouped into measures.  
The timing is not done in seconds, or minutes.

So if you want to have one staff at 4/4 and a tempo of 60, with another staff 
at 4/4 and a tempo of 120, you'll probably need to scale the durations of all 
the notes in the 120 staff by two, and probably fake the time signature (that 
is, set the time signature to say, 4/2 but display it as 4/4).  And when you do 
that, you'll need to reset the beaming rules.

So I think it's doable, but not easily.

[Lyric+Chords project] required engravers

[Kieren MacMillan]

Hello all,

I’m trying to develop a Lilypond lyrics+chords [only] framework, and am trying 
to understand the "cleanest" possible starting point.

The final goal: Given a set of lyrics (either with “inline” durations, or 
durations contained in a melody variable) and a set of chords (with durations), 
Lilypond should automatically output a lyric+chord sheet similar to what can be 
seen in the attached screenshot.

Obviously, there needs to be *some* timing coordination between the main 
contexts (Lyrics, ChordNames, and possibly NullVoice for the a melody). But 
notespacing should be totally ignored, skips and rests (of all durations) 
should be skipped completely, etc.

My two questions to start:

1. What engravers *must* be in the two primary/visible contexts (let’s call 
them LyricSheetLyrics and LyricSheetChords)?

2. What engravers will definitely get in the way, and therefore must *not* be 
in the two primary/visible contexts?

Thanks,
Kieren.

them individually into your DAW.

\book {

Well, first I made an experiment.
I included your code and tried to compile the most simple:

{ ceseh1 }

With 2.18.2 and 2.19.82 (converted)

In both version I get:
warning: Could not find glyph-name for alteration -3/4
2.18.2 is done with this warning
2.19.82 additionally prints some dummy accidental

> Am I the only one to have this problem?

Likely, but I have a hard time imagening your file ever worked:

Obviously you took
http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=786
and changed it.
But while defining your pitchnames in 'arrowedPitchNames', you use
alterations like
(* FLAT 3/2)
(/ FLAT 2)
(/ SHARP 2)
(* SHARP 3/2)
There is no corresponding entry in 'arrowGlyphs' for those alterations, though.
Thus LilyPond-2.19.82 does not find any accidental-glyph to print,
warns you and (to make it more obvious) it prints the dummy instead.

Create additional entries in 'arrowGlyphs' for the alterations listed
above and it should work.

I do actually use it on occasion.  When I started transcribing music in
the 1990's, I used the ABC of that era.  Even after I was getting much
better results from lilypond, I was still typing ABC because it was what
I knew how to do.  At one point abc2ly was quite good at transcribing
the ABC I used to the lilypond of that era.  (Partly because I did some
maintenance on it.)

Unfortunately, someone did some more maintenance, presumably to get it
to translate their ABC, and now when I use abc2ly I have to do some
editing to the lilypond.  I don't do it very often, but it is part of a
script that turns an old transcription into my new lilypond format.  So
I'd be a little bit sorry if it went away completely, but I could
probably work around the problem and  maybe even recover the version of
abc2ly that worked with my transcriptions.

Then there is no \version-statement in the file.
Insert the version it was originally was created for, probably temporary.
Or do
convert-ly --from=2.18.2 --to=2.19.82 file.ly
Note, this will only show what would be changed . To actually do it, add -e

Anyway, you can't expect much effect on guile-code, although I think
we have a convert rule whch eliminates superfluos 'parser'-arguments
for 2.19.

Well, first try convert-ly.
If it's not sufficient. You need to post your accidental.ly, otherwise
nobody can help.

And please, _no_ inline images. Attach them, link to them, but not inline.
Meanwhile I've got notifications from more and more companies dropping
any plain text, doing _all_ via html:
It lookes all bright and shiny like one brothel door next to more of
them. The content is hidden, though. Going on my nerves.
Thus I decided to disable _any_ html in mails.
So I can't see inline images, and I will not allow them being displayed, again.

To get a separate tempo marking in each staff, you would, in a \layout block, 
remove the Metronome_mark_engraver from the Score level, and add it to the 
Staff level. Because you’re new to LilyPond, I’ve attached a little longer and 
more complete example than usual and also included its contents below.

I would hasten to add that this is a visual fix only—the various tempi will not 
be rendered in MIDI playback. If you add a \midi { } line at the end of the 
\score block, it will use the last metronome mark (in the example below, 4 = 
110) as its tempo for all the parts. Someone more knowledgable than I will have 
to tell you if it's even possible to get separate tempi rendered 
simultaneously. I suspect not.

I hope this is helpful.

Also, I think they are talking about different time signatures (3/3,

markings as with time signitures with Lilypond?

Thanks a lot for the help again!

Re: Multiple tempos at the same time and midi playback?

[Paolo Cantamessa]

Hello Yakir,
welcome an Lilypond user.

Take look here this snippet: http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=344

It is very simple.

All the best.

Multiple tempos at the same time and midi playback?

[Yakir Arbib]

Hi All,


My name is Yakir and I'm a pianist / composer based in Paris.

I am very new to LilyPond, so please pardon me if my question is
annoying or redundant.

I write modern classical music in which each instrument has its' own
separate tempo.  My question is, do you think it's possible to write
something like that in LilyPond using separate tempo commands for each
staff?

My second question is, do you know of any GUI or outside software
(such as Frescobaldi) where I could type Lilypond code and listen to
the midi playback from any point in the score when I want without
having to compile the file each time?

* I am visually impaired and use a screan reader to work, so please
suggest a program where I can actually type the code (not manipulate
the notes graphically) and listen to midi by a simple command?

Thank you very very much for your time and help!

All my best,

Yakir

Problem with accidentals.ly and Lilypond 2.19.82

[Luca Danieli]

Hi there.

I have got a problem. In my score, I have included the library accidentals.ly
With Lilypond 2.19.82 I have the error:


163:2<0>: error: GUILE signaled an error for the expression beginning here

#

(ly:parser-set-note-names parser pitchnames)

If I change the line #(ly:parser-set-note-names parser pitchnames)
with #(ly:parser-set-note-names pitchnames)

the program compiles, but some notes present a X instead of the correct 
accidental.

[cid:b8369fdb-4dc3-4778-96bf-3cf7ffb201d7]

I am stuck between these two things and not know how to solve the issues and 
use accidentals.ly with Lilypond 2.19.82
