Re: Changing of default midi instrument

[Noeck]

Dear Peter,

this page of the documentation explaines it:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/creating-midi-files

In your example this would work:

\new Voice = "Strophe" {
  \set Staff.midiInstrument = #"violin"

… and so on or here:
  \midi {
    \context {
      \ChordNameVoice \remove Note_performer
    }
      \set Staff.midiInstrument = #"violin"
  }

For future questions, it would be helpful if you could provide a working
example code. Your snipped contained variables that are not defined
within the snippet. To replace many notes by just a few (like { c d })
would cure this, for example. See also:

Cheers,
Joram
