[ << General input and output ]	[Inizio][Contenuti][Indice][ ? ]			[ Spacing issues >> ]
[ < Creating MIDI output ]		[ Su : Creating MIDI output ]	[ Unsupported notation for MIDI > ]

The following musical notation can be used with LilyPond’s default capabilities to produce MIDI output;

Breath marks
Chords entered as chord names
Crescendi, decrescendi over multiple notes. The volume is altered linearly between the two extremes
Dynamic markings from ppppp to fffff, including mp, mf and sf
Microtones but not microtonal chords. A MIDI player that supports pitch bending will also be required.
Lyrics
Pitches
Rhythms entered as note durations, including tuplets
‘Simple’ articulations; staccato, staccatissimo, accent, marcato and portato
Tempo changes using the \tempo function
Ties
Tremolos that are not entered with a ‘:[number]’ value

When combined with the ‘articulate’ script the following, additional musical notation can be output to MIDI;

Appogiaturas. These are made to take half the value of the note following (without taking dots into account). For example;
```
\appoggiatura c8 d2.
```
The c will take the value of a crotchet.
Ornaments (i.e. mordents, trills and turns et al.)
Rallentando, accelerando, ritardando and a tempo
Slurs, including phrasing slurs
Tenuto
