Comment #6 on issue 665 by v.villenave: Request: MusicXML backend
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=665
New comment from Hu Haipeng:
The best way for you all is, to make a MusicXml backend. This feature has
the
following three advantages, two of which can't be approached by making a
much
terrible and hopeless (complicated, because the ones who know braille don't
know
programming, while the ones who program don't know braille!) braille
backend:
1. Musicxml can be accepted by most [free and non-free] notation programs.
2. LilyPond just focuses on music typesetting, its midi output is really
not ideal.
Every time I give my music to a composer, he/she will complain about the
bad balance,
suspecting my orchestration technique. Using Sibelius or Finale's VST
plugin can get
good sound output, including legato, staccato, glissando and smooth dynamic
changes.
It is a very important thing for the composer to hear what he/she have
written. The
more it's real, the better scoring result he/she can approach.
3. It's a good thing to view our own compositions with braille. Ly2brl is
extremely
difficult, and we have to begin from 0. Why don't we borrow other's fruits?
I use the BrailleMuse web-application, that is the most powerful
musicxml2braille
program now. I have helped this Japanese project to improve their program
for nearly
a year, and now, most of the musicxml files less than 20M can be processed.
The only
limitation is no lyrics (english version, but the Japanese one can only
output
Japanese texts), and the output is Ascii, which I like very much. You can
adjust
several formattings to fit your paper, change many settings to fit your
preference.
