Re: Rhythmic staff MIDI

[ebenezer]

Hello Martin,

No, I can use DrumStaff. I'm still experimenting with LilyPond, finding out what works easily and what doesn't.

Aesthetically, a RhythmicStaff looks better, so if it's something I can accomplish without too much effort (~1 day), I would delve deeper.

Since posting I have found that Drum_note_performer will output MIDI, but it's a soft piano sound, so I am now stuck at this point.

Thanks.

Hello,

is there any reason for not using DrumStaff if that works fine for MIDI?

Hello everyone,

I am attempting to use a percussion staff for a bongo part in a score.

staffBongo = \drummode {

boh4_\markup { \sans boh } boho8 bohm8 % -- and so on...

}

partBongo = \new RhythmicStaff \with {

} \staffBongo

doesn't output any MIDI. Note that using a DrumStaff works fine. The contexts under \midi {} are the same for both DrumStaff and RhythmicStaff. What am I doing that is incorrect, please?

Thanks.
