Hi all, Inspired by the “tweaking clefs” thread, I’m trying again to see if we can crowd-source a state-of-the-art multi-instrumentalist mechanism.
The snippet below (minimal, for these purposes?) demonstrates the problem I’m trying to solve. Am I just being too optimistic in hoping that we can find a [relatively] dead-simple solution, one that doesn’t require: 1. the music being broken up into variables and knitted back together; 2. multiple (and often redundant key signatures/changes and \transpose-itions; etc. ?? Has someone already invented this wheel, and I just don’t know about it? Thanks, Kieren. %%% SNIPPET BEGINS \version "2.19.56" \paper { line-width = 6\in } flute = { \set Staff.instrumentName = "Flute" \set Staff.shortInstrumentName = "Fl." \transposition c } altoflute = { \set Staff.instrumentName = "Alto Flute" \set Staff.shortInstrumentName = "A.
