Okay, I've still got a lot to learn both about music and Lilypond, so
maybe my assumptions are incorrect. But, I have a simple file that looks
like this:
\include "paper16.ly"
\score {
\notes {
\clef violin
\key c \major
g a' b' c' d' e' f' g' a'' b'' c'' d'' e'' f'' g''
}
}
I'm expecting this to just be an increasing scale, but it ends up looking
like this: http://www.omnicast.net/test-page1.png
This is correct. Octaves start on a C. C to B is in one octave. C' to
B' is the next octave. A' is in the next octave above G. B is the half
below C'.
You may have wanted:
g a b c' d' e' f' g' a' c'' d'' e'' f'' g''
I could have sworn I used the same thing on an older install, so is
something broken or is it just my head?
The only other possibility I know of is \notes\relative <note-name>
which has a different set of rules.
If it is in fact supposed to look like this, is there a way to always use
a specific note, like a'' will always be x octave?
That is the way it is. a'' will always be on the first leger line above
the treble clef and middle C will always be c' *unless* you use
\notes\relative or \transpose in which case the rules are different.
