Well, if you change 'Staff' to 'Score' in the line \temporary \override Staff.TimeSignature.stencil = then the new stencil is always printed without the need to repeat it in every Staff. Though, I have my doubts that's really what you want. I would recommend not to change the code but to \omit the TimeSignature in every Staff, where you don't want it: << \new Staff { r2 r \time ##f 3/4 r4 r r } \new Staff \with { \omit TimeSignature } { r2 r r4 r r } >> If you omit the Y-offset-override from the original example the TimeSignature is printed in Staff as usual. Though, Orff prints it above, afaik. With my original coding there is a lot of space below the TimeSignature. It could be removed or at least reduced if the dimensions of the TimeSignature-stencil would be adjusted. But I simply don't know how changes of TimeSignatures are dealed with in this edition of the Carmina Burana. Can you link to some online-images of line-breaking TimeSignatures?
