I figured out the proper syntax for changing "SpacingSpanner" properties.
Esentially, it goes like this:
\score{
...
...
\paper{
\translator{
\ScoreContext
SpacingSpanner \override #'spacing-increment = #2.0
}
}
}
I've tried:
"SpacingSpanner \override #'spacing-increment = #4.0"
and
"SpacingSpanner \override #'common-shortest-duration = #(make-moment 1 8)"
but they don't do what I want: simply increase the horizontal space between notes.
Can anyone point out the right SpacingSpanner properties to do this?
