so a lillypond/mml competitor?

dave 2015-10-23T15:21:54.000014Z

lilypond has its own niche as a sheet music generator

dave 2015-10-23T15:22:15.000015Z

alda can't do that, at least not yet. its intended use is to generate sound

dave 2015-10-23T15:22:52.000016Z

mml generally is limited to a specific sound engine, e.g. the 2a03 sound chip for nes music

dave 2015-10-23T15:23:09.000017Z

alda will eventually support a bunch of sound generators, but right now only general midi is supported

btw, i think if we were ever to implement sheet music generation for alda scores, we would use lilypond to do it :simple_smile:
