Re: Midi import

[Mats Bengtsson]

Hi,

The program midi2ly that comes with your Lilypond version 1.6.5 has
some bugs. I downloaded the latest version from the source code
repository and set it up for the installation paths used in your
installation and will send you a copy in a private email.

However, even with this functioning version of the program, you will
soon discover some problems with the conversion from MIDI, for example
that it's difficult to get the durations correct. For your example,
I got a reasonable result using 'midi2ly -d8'.
