Is anyone maintaining midi2ly?

[Michael Ellis]

Hi, It's been a few years since my last post here.  I'm wondering about the status of midi2ly.  I just tried the version that came with 2.18.2 and it seems to handle meter changes incorrectly.  Here's a short example produced from a midi file imported into MuseScore 2.1

and here's the result of processing what midi2ly produced from the same file

The MuseScore output is correct and matches the tempo and meter items embedded in the original midi file (attached).  I've also verified with 2 different DAW's (Reaper and Logic X) that the midi file is imported correctly.

The application that produced the midi file is called tbon. It's a shorthand notation language I wrote for projects where fast notation entry is more important than having the full capabilities of LilyPond.  If you're curious about tbon, go to https://github.com/Michael-F-Ellis/tbon . The README has a link to a live online demo.

I'd really rather use LP than MuseScore for the times when I want to engrave the output from tbon since LP still produces better looking scores, imo, but not being able to handle meter changes is a showstopper.

Thanks,

Mike
