Rhytm problem

I've transcribed this song, but I can't write correctly the measure 5. The first note should have a dot, but if I put the dot the measure is too big; I can't see errors, what could be the problem?

Some note durations are wrong in your transcription and mess up it's rhythm. For male singers, the setting at https://www.lieder-archiv.de/es_braust_ein_ruf_wie_donnerhall-notenblatt_300523.html seems more appropriate, notwithstanding Carl Wilhelm's original manuscript for "Die Wacht am Rhein". Further, the sixth-last not was wrong, G instead of A♭.

Convert Tool

Can someone please make a convert tool? Like from midi or musicxml file to this score type? I really need a convert tool to save time! - ABAL1412^{🇻🇳🇸🇺🇷🇺} (talk ☭) 16:32, 1 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Add title and midi

Hi, I had a working score with a midi (vorbis=1 midi=1) enabled, but I can't show any title using /header.

$\header { tagline = "" % no footer title = "Indonesia Raya" composer = "W. R. Supratman" } \new Staff << \new Voice = "1" { \voiceOne \time 6/8 \tempo 4 = 96 \relative c' { \set Staff.midiInstrument = #"violin" r4 r8 c4 c8 | f4. a4 a8 | a4. a4 a8 | g4. e4 e8 | e4. g4 g8 | g4. f4 e8 | d4. e4 d8 | c2.~ c4. r8 r4 } } >>$

Then I tried using raw=1 according to the example on the page, and the title showed up, but it isn't compatible with vorbis/midi

$\header { tagline = "" % no footer title = "Indonesia Raya" composer = "W. R. Supratman" } \new Staff << \new Voice = "1" { \voiceOne \time 6/8 \tempo 4 = 96 \relative c' { \set Staff.midiInstrument = #"violin" r4 r8 c4 c8 | f4. a4 a8 | a4. a4 a8 | g4. e4 e8 | e4. g4 g8 | g4. f4 e8 | d4. e4 d8 | c2.~ c4. r8 r4 } } >>$

No MIDI file generated despite being requested. If you are working in raw LilyPond mode, make sure to provide a proper \midi block.

So, how can I display both title and the midi? Thanks. Bennylin (talk) 18:18, 27 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

MIDI file without the score

Hello,

does anyone know a possibility how to generate a MIDI file without displaying the score (other than creating and uploading the MIDI file separately)? --Furfur^{⁂ Diskussion} 15:28, 31 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Answered at de:Hilfe Diskussion:Notensatz#Nur die Tondatei ohne den Notentext:

<score sound raw>
\header { tagline = ##f }
triad = \relative c' { c e g }
empty = r1
\score { \empty \layout { \context { \Staff \RemoveAllEmptyStaves } } }
\score { \midi { } \triad }
</score>

$\header { tagline = ##f } triad = \relative c' { c e g } empty = r1 \score { \empty \layout { \context { \Staff \RemoveAllEmptyStaves } } } \score { \midi { } \triad }$
