Hello. I've been thinking about Lilypond's usage on parts: for one musician (for example, the singer singing the melody) I'd like to give them a score containing voltas using the repeat and volta commands; for another musician (for example, the drummer) I'd like to give them a score with no repeats and voltas. I know that if I'd like to create a full-band score (i.e a grid) I can use the \unfoldRepeats at every variable, creating one straight through score.
However, is it possible to create something like a "Tempo Map" of sorts? Like a part/variable that gives instructions to the master grid to create repeats and voltas without the need to create new parts? My objective is to figure out a way to create independent grid scores from musician part scores. To give a singer one straight, 6 pages score, to give a drummer a 1 page score and to give the conductor a 4 page score. Is that possible? Best regards, Lucas.
