Re: Fast lilypond input - does midi keyboard help?

[deviskra]

Hello! 

If you write monophonic melodies with varying rhythm and navigate through
your PC keyboard well, there wouldn't be any advantage, likely. Yet,
rhythmic MIDI input in general is very inaccurate, for me. Instead, it's
possible to start with writing your parts rhythmically, without paying
attention to the note symbol to be used. You can add slurs, articulations
and so on at this stage too. Then, you can switch to the MIDI input and
replace that single note symbol with needed notes and chords. It's much
faster to write this way if you have to type many different chords. And if
you have your rhythm similar most of the time it completely bursts your
speed. Such feature isn't yet in the official Frescobaldi repository, but is
here https://github.com/deviskra/frescobaldi/tree/v2.x
