Re: Controlling midi volumen of a long note

[ebenezer]

Hi Pablo,

This covers what you can do with MIDI in terms of dynamics:

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.22/Documentation/notation/controlling-midi-dynamics

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.22/Documentation/notation/supported-notation-for-midi

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.22/Documentation/notation/unsupported-notation-for-midi (NB, Crescendi and decrescendi over a single note)

Note that if you want to have finer control over the MIDI, you'll likely want to import the MIDI into another program, such as a DAW (I do this for glissandi).

Also note that Lilypond is primarily for engraving, the MIDI is a nice to have extra feature.

Hope that helps set your expectations.

Hi,

When a long note is sounding and there is a rest afterward, the note abruptly quiets down, which is awful.

I have several staves so controlling the general MIDI volumen is useless. I need to control the volume of one staff or the volume of the note.

Is there any way to meke the MIDI volume of that note drop gently at the end?

Thank you very much and best wishes
