Hello,

I recently made an in-depth video tutorial on how to input music fast with
LilyPond and your MIDI keyboard, as well as use Frescobaldi for very quick
input (articulations, dynamics, hairpins, etc). If you're interested here is
the link:

Are you using a GUI editor for LilyPond currently? If not, you should
consider trying out Frescobaldi. I have setup some custom snippets, quick
keyboard shortcuts, and combined with MIDI keyboard input I have increased
my speed tremendously.

Hope this helps you,

Ben
