Hi David,

It is often a tossup whether you are better off using the partcombiner
on voices, or just \voiceOne/\voiceTwo. If, say, one of two oboes
switches instruments, you just want to see this for its own voice. In
fact, I find that for things like two oboes, you are almost always
better off using separate voices. The partcombiner is more interesting
if you try creating a piano extract or similar, where there is only
one executing instrument.
I totally agree ... but: The piece I am working on is a partitura for
piece where flute II uses a piccolo in a few cases. For the two oboes,
where oboe II sometimes uses an english horn, I use 2 staffs.
For this flute/piccolo case, this decision is a question of space ... so
now I can split violine I&II in two staffs to prevent collisions because
of voice-crossing (english term? ;) )
For all the other divided instruments (fagott, trumpet) the partcombiner
is totally fine. I can override the solo- and a-due-texts to e.g. "(flt
I)" and "zu 2" like in the manuscript. Well this is to discuss with the
one, who is actually using this piece ;-)
Cheers,
Jan-Peter
