Hello,
I have these 3 questions...
1) what's the best way to use string substitution, I mean something like:
tune = c
soprano = \notes \transpose $tune {...}
alto = \notes \transpose $tune {...}
The problem is that the c in this case is not interpreted
as a string but rather as a pitch. For this specific application
you could probably add an extra pitchname and set it at the
top of the file, but I don't know the exact details of how
to do it at the moment. However, see the answer to next
question.
2) What's the best way to transpose a whole score? Should I put a
\transpose on every expression? Can I do it in the global variable?
You can transpose the full score:
\score{ \notes \transpose d
\context Staff = first {...}
\context Staff = second {...}
...
}
3) I read in documentation that I could use addLyrics with \notes instead
of \lyrics. I would use it with an alto voice that has the same timing of
the soprano voice (in fact, all voices have the same timing). Is there a
way so I can type the timing only once? e.g.
soprano = \notes { g2 g8 g8 f8 f8 | ... }
alto = \notes { ees ees ees c c | ... }
Yes, just put \alto where you normally put the lyrics.
