How to handle changing transpositions

2014-09-09 Thread Urs Liska
Hi list, I have a problem understanding how to efficiently deal with horn parts that change their transposition with the clef. That is: In the treble clef the part is notated as \transpose f, c while in the bass clef it is notated in concert pitch. Is there a convenient way in LilyPond (or

Hi Jan-Peter, may I again mention the auto-transpose snippet. Does the key signature get changed automatically, even if the key-signatures are defined “externally” (i.e., in a variable) and change DURING THE TIME the player is on the second (or third) instrument? If so, this would solve a

Yes, there is a rule. All of the places where you have used underscore, like er__go should be hyphens: er-go and the last words in both lines (cernui and jubilatio) should both end with an underscore that goes through the last note. Larry in Tampa On Tue, Sep 9, 2014 at 1:56 PM, Son_V

Hello Knute, perhaps its just an unusual topic few have experience with? At least I don’t; yet after a look in the NR section on the topic I think you’re on the right path with the cond approach. After all, you want to define a single function to pass it on as dynamicAbsoluteVolumeFunction.
