I am not suggesting that anything happen *as if* I had entered \unfoldRepeats. Instead, I specify \unfoldRepeats explicitly in my MIDI score, but the MIDI doesn't repeat the \repeat volta sections unless I take some un-DRY pains. This is documented as such, but it is awkward. _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
