Hi,

I am currently thinking about how to teach the Lilypond music typesetter
diatonic transcription. Now I have a Morino Club here while I have not
yet sold it. So it would be obvious to target that box. Except that I
don't know how the Griffschrift would write out the bass buttons. Is
there any norm for them?

Thanks

I wish I could help you, David.

A while back I thought of doing something similar with Lilypond for
AAA notation, but that project got scrapped when some other, more
important things came up.

I know that there are people interested in adapting Lilypond for
various types of accordion notation, and there is a Lilypond forum
where you might get some ideas, but I haven't accessed it.

Take care.

Alan

Hey, I am fine with working out the technical details. It is just that
I need to know what result I want to arrive at: all the Griffschrift and
its descriptions I have or can find are for Styrian.

Button numbers are written under the stave, can be one or two numbers
- one above the other - where two buttons are to be pressed at the
same time.
Button numbers 1 to 8 for an 8-bass where button 1 outside, lowest
bass (F/C on a C/F instrument), button 2 is the chord button above it
(f/c chords), button 3 is bass above those (C/G bass), button 4 the
chords above (c/g chords). The inside row is numbered from bottom up
parallel to the outside row numbers 5-8. For 12 bass instruments (two
columns of 6) the next two outside buttons are 9 & 10, the parallel
inside buttons 11 & 12 etc. I'm not sure how the extra buttons on the
third row on the Marino are numbered, but I expect they just
substitute for the next buttons in an upwards direction...

Hope that helps
