transposition and midi

2005-01-04 Thread D Josiah Boothby
Using 2.4.2, I'd like to be able to transpose a part, create a midi file, and create the graphical output. The midi output is transposed right along with the score if everything is in the same score block. Is it possible to have an untransposed midi with transposed parts without having to play

If I understand you correctly, you want a new .ly file whose content is a transposed version of another .ly file. However, I don't understand why you would need such a thing. The following example shows how you can combine fragments of music written for different transpositions into a single part:

Thank you for showing me that there are two sections on transposing, Mats, but now I have a new question: In a recent email to the list, I saw that to remove a key signature, I could just use \override KeySignature #'transparent to do the job. Unfortunately, when I do this to a transposed part

The syntax of the \transpose command is \transpose from to music In other words, it only applies to the expression directly after the \transpose command. In your example you only transpose the \override command (which of course doesn't have any effect at all). If you want to transpose the

You understood correctly. The solution you suggested would work, but is less neat for my needs. The reason I want to have transposed lilypond code is that I have a fragment of music I've written to be included in a longer piece. I already have it in lilypond code in the E key. Now the piece

So \override Staff.KeySignature = ##t just hides the key signature, but leaves accidentals out (unless they fall outside of the key). Should I be playing with automatic accidentals, or is transparency not the right way to go? Josiah On Tue, 4 Jan 2005, Mats Bengtsson wrote: Also, the setting
