)On the other hand, don't we have a bit of a problem with Lilypond, here?
)It's doing one thing with the 3 voices when engraving, and quite a
)different one when generating midi. Furthermore, there's nothing about
)this in the documentation (Notation Reference) that I can find - I looked in
)"1.4.1 Long repeats", and "3.5 Midi output", and a number of other less
)likely places, and found no mention of a need to add repeats to voices
)which are not needed for engraving so that midi output will make sense.
)
)The logical place for this information to be placed would seem to be
)"3.5.4 Repeats in midi", and a link to this should appear in 1.4.1, I think.
)
)If this is a reasonable idea, does anyone know to whom I should make this
)request?
)
)Also, in the course of working this out, I've made an interesting discovery
)which I'll share in a different post (new topic).
)
)Thanks again, and I AM interested in seeing that the documentation is
)updated if this possible.
