Hello Peter,

you can use a Dynamics context in the middle of the PianoStaff:

\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff = "RH" \relative c' { c8 d e f g a bes b | c1 }
\new Dynamics = "dyn" { s1\p\< s1\f }
\new Staff = "LH" \relative c { \clef "bass" c8 d e f g a bes b | c1 } >>

HTH,
Jan-Peter

How to get dynamics centred on a piano staff? <Newbie alert>

I'm trying to engrave some piano music where the dynamics don't belong to either of the staffs, but refer to both staffs. If I put them in on the RH staff, they're a bit high.

Also, I have to use the << || >> construction a lot because there's a mix of homophonic and polyphonic writing. I can't work out how to start (say) a crescendo in the middle of a polyphonic section and terminate it in a monophonic section, and vice-versa, as LP associates the cresc with the voice, and then complains that it's not terminated.

Is there an easy way to get round these issues?

Regards,

Peter
