You explicitly override the setting inherited from \Staff with \type "Engraver_group" telling LilyPond to wire up this context for use with engravers, making it see and distribute grobs. Which is not particularly helpful with \midi output. Specifying \type rarely makes sense when not defining a context from scratch but inheriting from some existing definition. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
