Hi Kieren,
I'm somewhat late to the party, and hadn't looked to thoroughly at your
example code, either, but I'd like to nevertheless share my take on one
specific point:
3. Compare the voicing of m3 in the SATB and SA voicings: mm1-2 are different,
but m3 is the same. How can I do this kind of thing with the least amount of
code duplication? I don’t believe quoted music can be transposed directly
(i.e., you need to create a second, pre-transposed, quotation); I can’t see how
to inject a transposition (e.g., using the Edition-Engraver) into a specific
part of a score/variable; I really don’t want to have to break every variable
into multiple subvariables to handle every difference between voicings (nor do
I want to have complete duplicates, one per voicing!); etc.
For quite a long time now I'm relying heavily on openlilylib's
auto-transpose module. In my experience it does play nicely together with
the edition-engraver. One caveat is its abuse of the \transposition
command, which might throw things off if you need midi output. But I don't
do midi, so I wouldn't know...
Attached is a silly little example I whacked together to make sure I
wasn't going to tell some nonsense.
All the best,
Martin
