Hi,
> midi2ly
I used it for freely licensed scores on cpdl or imslp which are not
created in LilyPond and too ugly to use in a choir. Sometimes midi files
are published together with the pdf or the proprietary format. The
result was never usable directly (all voices in one staff without
collision-avoidance/voice-association, no or bad lyrics, wrong key,
scaled durations, i.e. a4*234/128 s4*22/128 instead of a2 - the latter
problem might by fixed by finding an appropriate quanization).
The problems ranged from ly files that are easily fixed to some cases
where it was much faster to rewrite everything from scratch. I guess it
depends on the application writing the midi file. I never systematically
cared about that.
Summary: Most of the time, midi2ly gave me a file from which I could
extract single voices, fix some errors and put them into my own ly
skeleton and it was worth having the tool.
Cheers,
Joram
