Hi. I'm curious if there's a way to re-use a variable containing
chords entered in \chordmode to create strumming patterns with
Pitch_squash_engraver and \improvisationOn. I like only having to
enter the chords once, so if I change something, I only need to do it
in one place, and I also would like the strumming patterns in the midi
output. But the issue is that handing multiple notes to the
Pitch_squash_engraver gives it a double note-head. Is there a way to
maybe extract the root of the chord, or get a single head from the
Pitch_squash_engraver?
Thanks!
Joel
Example:
\version "2.19.25"
chordNames = \chordmode {
c4 c8 c~ c c c c
g4 g8 g~ g g g g
}
<<
\new ChordNames {
\set chordChanges = ##t
\chordNames }
\new Voice \with {
\consists "Pitch_squash_engraver"
} { \improvisationOn
% Would like some option here like:
% \chordRoot
\chordNames
}
