relative pitch with song sections

2014-05-12 Thread Carlo Vanoni
Hi everyone, I'm transcribing a song that is, as usual, versex2-chorus-verse-chorus. Instead of copying all the notes of the verse/chorus section, I've created the verse-chorus sections so than I can just add \verse \chorus in the main score to print it. I need to display both the score and

Uh, bass_8... that's a news. I still use the relative to prevent some ' and , from the code. Since I also have (in the real code) also fingering and sting numbers, it will become a real mess otherwise. Here is the now working code: % \version 2.18.0 verse =

Hi everyone, this is more a generic music notation question than a LilyPond related. By the way, I will ask it here so I can get a LilyPond related solution if needed, too. I have a simple song, where the verse is 4 measures repeated twice, and the chorus again 4 measures repeated twice. The

Hi Jaques, thanks for the hint! By now, the hidden measure does the trick. The main drawback is the time change, that can led to some issue. In my previous example, since the repeat mark is on a bar before a break, adding the hidden measure there print a time change hint at the end of the
