MidiToLily is a Windows console application that converts a MIDI file to LilyPond format. You can create sheet music from a MIDI file by using MidiToLily as a preprocessor for LilyPond. MidiToLily is an alternative to the midi2ly script that ships with LilyPond.

Features

  • t’s a console app, doesn’t have an installer, and doesn’t store things in the registry or anywhere else.
  • Notes can be quantized to a regular grid, a triplet grid, or both grids, in which case the note snaps to whichever grid is nearest.
  • The title, composer, and copyright can be specified, with Unicode support. Clef overrides, sections, and ottavas are also supported.
  • The tempo, time signature, and key signature are read from the input MIDI file. I have only tested MidiToLily on type 1 MIDI files.
