There are several ways to handle this.
I always postprocess the MIDI output, eg. to split chords + 4 parts into
4 separate MIDI files, each having one part plus the chords (but with
decreased volume). It would be trivial to just leave the chords out.
Another way is using tags:
allMusic = {
<<
\tag #'scoreOnly \harmonics
\sopranoStaff
... other staffs ...
>>
}
%% Generate the printed score.
\score {
\removeWithTag #'midiOnly \allMusic
\layout { ... }
}
%% Generate the MIDI.
\score {
\removeWithTag #'scoreOnly \unfoldRepeats \allMusic
\midi { ... }
}
