Hi everyone, I searched the archives and found a few discussions about generating swing-feel MIDI from straight eighths Lily source but the most recent was from 2004. I was thinking about writing a Scheme function to carve up all of the durations into units of eighths, inserting the proper ties to maintain longer notes. Then I could imagine altering the durations as appropriate to implement the swing feel.
if you're only interested in adding swing to the MIDI (not the notation), it will be a lot easier to multiply durations suitably, ie. do
c8 c8 -> c8*2/3 c8*1/3 Doing note splitting with correct ties would be a royal pain in the behind. -- Han-Wen Nienhuys - address@hidden - http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanwen LilyPond Software Design -- Code for Music Notation http://www.lilypond-design.com
