Hi,
In the Gigsaw's process I use Timing_translator in midi block like this:
\midi {
\context {
\Score
%%%%%%% \remove "Timing_translator"
tempoWholesPerMinute = #(ly:make-moment 100 4)
}
\context { \Staff
\consists "Timing_translator"
}
\context { \DrumStaff
\consists "Timing_translator"
}
}
and use midicomp to get the specific midi file. I've made a lot of tests
with different time signature and unimaginable polymetric score and I
*always* see the time signature to be 4/4 18 8 in midicomp's header,
whatever I write in MY-SONG.ly. I'm more than very interested in this
information. I'm feeling the Lily's math calculation in this case are
*always* processed from a quarter note within a 4/4. I mean in this case
Lilypond digests all the math with a 'concatenation' when it outputs
midi file. (I hope you understand me). Logical, nifty... GNU...
basically! Is someone can definitively confirm this impression? Or
points me on a deeper source? I'd want to avoid a bad surprise later.
Thanks.
