I would do one instrument at a time. I find it easier to keep track of what I'm doing that way, especially if there are a few different clefs and keys to work in. I normally start with the top one and work down. Or, depending on how well my brain's working, I might do them all according to clef and key. It can take me a bit to get used to working in bass clef (I only play treble clef instruments) and I can confuse myself if I'm working quickly. > > Also if I am able to split the work to a group of workers, is it a > good idea to give each worker an instrument? Definitely. It'll be far easier to combine it all when they're done. > Of course, these are only my opinions, but I hope they help! -- Cameron Horsburgh Blog: http://spiritcry.wordpress.com/ _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
