It's generally best to have a separate score block for MIDI output, so
you can unroll repeats and so on --- just leave the chords out of
that score.
accomp=\chords {c4 f g2:7}
tune=\relative c'' { c4 c b a}
\score {
<<
\context Chords \accomp
\context Staff {\key c \major \time 4/4 \tune}
>>
\layout{}
}
\score {
\unfoldRepeats <<
\context Staff {\key c \major \time 4/4 \tune}
>>
\midi {}
}
From another post to this subject (about a year ago) I found
accomp=\chords {c4 f g2:7}
tune=\relative c'' { c4 c b a}
\score {
<<
\context Chords \accomp
\context Staff {\key c \major \time 4/4 \tune}
>>
\layout{}
\midi {
\context { \ChordNameVoice \remove Note_performer }
}
}
which has the advantage of not needing another \score-block,
but I haven't tested this.
