I support your preference. If two staves were *needed* to avoid a performance disaster, I would say otherwise. But where, as here, the issue is merely what somebody expects, then I see no reason for you to reconsider. Jan Terje Augestad wrote: Actually there's examples of this; for instance

You can calculate them any way you want. But you must then tell LilyPond what the note names *are*. Jonghyun Kim wrote: Thanks Ole for good info. I will test it. Really there is no way to write pitches with midi numbers in Lilypond? I need this way for composing music that calculate half-step
