-To answer this, I have to give a little background. Please say so if
-I am being obtuse.
-
-Both audio and notation elements are created decentrally, when
-LilyPond says "Interpreting music ... [8][16] etc." After all
-elements are created, they are processed again to calculate all
-parameters. After that is done, they are dumped onto the output (the
-MIDI stream or the TeX file).
-
-The audio and notation elements are created by objects called
-performer and engraver respectively. They work by taking a chunk of
-input (a so-called request), and using the request to create an audio
-or notation element.
-
-After some processing, the engraver sends the created elements to
-its enclosing notation/performance context.
-
-In the case of notation, engravers can also modify existing elements
-created by sibling engravers. Eg. the beam-engraver will modify stems
-when it creates a beam over a couple of stems. This is done in
-Engraver::do_acknowledge_element () and
-Engraver::do_process_acknowledged ().
-
-In the case of audio, there are no mechanisms to modify existing audio
-elements. After the audio elements are created, they are sent directly
-to the enclosing context (an instance of Performer_group_performer),
-through the method Performer::play ()
-
Concretely spoken, for dynamics you have to write a performer
(Dynamics_performer), that will take the input requests. If I
understand correctly, every MIDI note played must have its dynamic
1 supporting dynamic settings in Audio_note
- 2 mimicking the broadcast/acknowledge mechanism of the Engravers in
- the Performers
-
- 3 using that mechanism to write a Dynamics_performer that will modify
+ 2 Write a Dynamics_performer that will modify
any notes it finds to set appropriate strengths.
-You could also kludge this by deriving from Performer_group_performer
-a performer that also sets dynamics within notes, but that is not the
-elegant way to do it.
-
I'd say that the work involved is not hard, but you have to be fluent
with C++ and need some insight into the working of Notation Contexts
and friends. I guess I could do it in a day or so, but if you are not
the MIDI output (I don't even have a soundcard). But I *do* want to help
you or other people with implementing this, so if you need help, don't
hesitate to ask.

.* SMALLISH PROJECTS
+. * Faulenzer sign (% repeat). Perhaps also use \repeat syntax?

I hope the above helps,
