New issue 1973 by address@hidden: Enhancement request: add ability to create wav/mp3
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1973

I use lilypond to create practise tracks for a couple of the choirs willing to put up with me, by using \midi blocks, then batch converting the .midi files to .mp3, with this script:
%-----
#!/bin/bash
for f in *.mid*;
do
  timidity -Ow -o - "$f" | lame - $f.mp3;
done
%-----

The contentious part is obviously the call to lame, but even without it, timidity has a ton of useful options and features, chief among them being OSS and cross platform.

Is it feasible (have I just not seen in TFM) to pipe LP output in that fashion, or could we create a sort of \wav or \mp3 block?

I suppose the scriptlet could go somewhere (LSR?), too.
