About four years ago, I did almost all, if not all of your listed steps with Lilypond and Ardour.
I wrote a multi-voice score in Lilypond, converted the score to MIDI, loaded this MIDI into Ardour, and then assigned the various MIDI voices to various synthesis plugins. The process did include editing the original Lilypond score and thus creating new MIDI voices that were used to replace MIDI voices that I had previously imported into Ardour. The process worked very well, and I would certainly work this way again if I needed to do such a project.
