Thanks Marc, That works beautifully! I'll also keep in mind what Mats said about naming these two macros. Any suggestions of unreserved names? Sorry for asking such silly questions, but I'm a newbie with Lilypond... On 15 May 2008, at 10:24, Marc Hohl wrote: Hi Marco, have a look at

Audio signal to generate .ly file

Has anyone done any research into translating an audio signal into a .ly file? For instance playing a recording of a single note melody and creating the responding file in .ly. Nothing more complex than that. Thanks Graham -- View this message in context:

Re: Audio signal to generate .ly file

Lots of people have done research into translating single-note audio into MIDI or notes, and of course from there it would be a cinch to translate to ly. Unfortunately that first part is the kicker. It's not unheard of, but it always depends on many factors: the instrument and timbre, recording

Tell me one application that allows midi and doesn't allow mid. I think this decision of choosing .midi was the result of an unpractical idealistic approach. I consider this a bug. Bert Valentin Villenave wrote: 2008/5/15 Karl Hammar [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Perhaps you have better luck if

The easiest way would be to enable proportional notation (see the chapter on Spacing) and then do c4*2 for the doubled notes. Cheers, - Graham On Thu, 15 May 2008 22:55:28 -0300 padovani [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi everyone, Is it possible to change the width (and, proportionally, the
