Hi everyone,
I'm creating my first Lilypond score, an arrangement of A Te O Cara.
I am using Frescobaldi and used the Score Wiazrd to get started.
I have now come across a MIDI limitation, a maximum of 16 instruments as
I understand it.
I'm assuming I'm not the first to come across this limitation; what is
the easiest way to accommodate more than 16 instruments within the
constraints of a score structured this way? ...
\version "2.20.0"
\language "english"
\header {
% ...
}
\paper {
#(set-paper-size "a3")
}
\layout {
% ...
}
global = {
\key d \major
% ...
}
flute = {
\global
% -- measures _0 to _7
R1. |
r4. r4. r4. a''4( a''16) a''16 |
% ...
}
% ... more voices
flutePart = \new Staff \with {
instrumentName = "Flute"
shortInstrumentName = "Fl."
midiInstrument = "flute"
} \flute
% ... more staves
\score {
<<
\flutePart
% ... more parts
>>
\layout {
\set Score.currentBarNumber = #0
}
\midi { }
}
If this structure is not conducive to implementing dynamic switching of
MIDI instruments or whatever is required, I would consider changing it,
but now rather than when I've completed the score!
Thank you for reading.
