Re: MIDI Volume

[Mats Bengtsson]

The documentation of the *_performers (corresponding to *_engravers
but for MIDI output instead of paper output) is fairly primitive
for the moment. The only documentation of these properties I could
find for the moment is at
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.4/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond-internals/Dynamic_005fperformer.html
and I couldn't find any reference to this page.

The best documentation today is probably to look at the default value
for the property, which is the Scheme function called
default-dynamic-absolute-volume, which is defined in the file
.../scm/midi.scm.

However, from the mailing list archives of lilypond-devel, you can see
that the support for MIDI is being revised for the moment, so hopefully
the documentation will be updated correspondingly.
