Special tempo indication in new version of lilypond

2010-07-11 Thread - Hu Haipeng
Hello, I know how to write special tempo indication like 4= ca120 in old versions of lilypond. But since the new ones have included \tempo text + tempo function, I don't know how to adjust it. Moreover, the indication is quite different from the snippet. At the end of my overture, there are

Thanks Carl, I have solved the problem last night by adding midi tags to all the problematic instruments (bassoons, trumpet I, cello and bass). I don't know how Lilypond calculates music values, but I've never heard such issue in other musical notation softwares. Regards Haipeng

Bug? a minimal example to show going back in midi time

2010-07-09 Thread - Hu Haipeng
Dear All, After reading the messages about going back in midi time, I realized that the main problem of my overture's midi output is not totally because of articulate. Here's the small intro containing just 8 bars, and the problem is at bar 7. Please run it, and you'll see these warnings. I

bad spacing and paginationin 2.13.26

2010-06-28 Thread - Hu Haipeng
Hello, I downloaded 2.13.26 to compile my overture. The result is bad, because it not only uses more pages, but also reported a (de)crescendo too small warning. I reinstalled 2.13.24-2, then the warning disappeared, and the page amount is back to normal. Are there any spacing changes in 26?

In the MIDI version of your score, you can try to include several voices in the same Staff,... Thanks, I know it. The issue came when I used instrument changes such as pizz and mute, which create more sounds. Brett pointed out in yesterday's email that Finale and Sibelius uses different

I did put in a bit of a suggestion to tackle precisely this challenge. ... I think this feature needs someone to add many C++ codes in the source, but it seems that most of the improvement were done out of (I mean by not largely modifying) the core (I guess). Haipeng

Sorry, I misunderstood NR. But I still need more than 16 sounds. I don't know the difference between channel and track. Finale and Sibelius can have more than 32 instruments at once, so I don't know whether Lilypond can reach this feature. Regards Haipeng

Hello Urs, I'd like to tell you that I wanted Lilypond to export Musicxml to fit my usage (as a blind), but no one is able to do this. This issue and related talks is in the Google Code. By the way, Musescore has removed Lilypond import already. Regards Haipeng

midi channel problem

Hello, I'm working on my overture. NR says by moving Staff_performer to Voice and creating more than one voice in a staff, more than 16 kinds of instruments can be used in midi output. But I failed, resulting many warnings saying there are more than 16 tracks. One thing I can tell is, I still

Hello, As a person reported earlier, 2.13.24 can't create pdf. My error is not the same as his. The program aborts at the end, saying can't find libgs.exe.so.8.70. It's strange that the file it's finding is not a standard file, because there are many other things after the regular exe

Hello, Here's another serious problem (only with blind). Sighted people can check whether the page turn is disturbing the flowing music and troubling the players, but for me, I have to ask an assistant for help, since Lilypond can't export Musicxml, or Musescore can't open Lilypond file.

Hello, I find I'm facing a problem I didn't pay attention to--making parts. I have read the NR, and know how to add cues. But here's a problem: how can I use the same source to extract every parts with different cues? Thus, if I add \cueDuring to every part, the full score will also contain

Thanks. No, not if you use \killCues in your full score. I know it, but the example puts it inside the music expression, so I guess it can't be used as: piccolo = \relative c,, { } \new Staff = piccolo { \killCues \piccolo } Am I wrong? Regards Haipeng
