Hi Mats,
may I ask you why manually inserting the alternate endings and repeat
signs is not a good idea? It seems easier than adding a voice with
spacer rests..
I've found the commands here:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/Long-repeats#Manual-repeat-marks
It works (see attached example). I just get a warning:
"already have a volta spanner, ending that one prematurely"
What do you think about it?
\version "2.13.8"
\parallelMusic #'(VoiceA VoiceB) {
% Bar 0
s1 |
s1 |
% Bar 1
\set Score.repeatCommands = #'(start-repeat)
r4 g' c e ~ |
c,1 |
% Bar 2
e4 g, c e ~ |
b1 |
% Bar 3
% 1st alternative
\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta "1"))
e4 a, c e |
a1 |
\bar ":|"
% Bar 4
% 2nd alternative
\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta "2"))
a,1 |
a1 |
\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f))
}
