MIDI output has been improved

-@item voices are kept separated, which makes the MIDI much more useful for postprocessing

@item optimal channel distribution: identical instruments share the same channel. This means that e.g. for a full orchestral score there are always 16 (15 plus percussion) diffently sounding instruments available, unrestricted by the number of staves or voices.
-@item dynamics are now rendered as note velocities, no longer as midi dynamics. This improves the sound on [high end] midi renderers.
+@item @code{\set Score.midiChannelMapping = #'staff} assigns one MIDI channel per staff, previously the default behavior. This setting is required if you want instrument changes to create MIDI program changes on a single MIDI channel.

+New markup functions @code{\with-link} and @code{\page-link} that add
+hyperlinks to a given label or a given page number. This works in the PDF
+backend only. All entries to the table of contents now automatically add
+hyperlinks to the pages they are referring to.

Compound time signatures are now supported by the @code{\compoundMeter} command,
which can be used instead of @code{\time}:
