Re: 5 quaters per 4/4 measure
Hello, Thanks for the solutions! I think I’ll use the cadenza : its use for the intonation before the main music body is quite convincing.

But if you want to display five quarters in a 4/4 meter you'd want to do { \time 4/4 \scaleDurations 4/5 { % \omit Stem c4 c c c c } } HTH Urs -- u...@openlilylib.org https://openlilylib.org http://lilypondblog.org ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

It's an intonation. They are usually done unmetered. The 4/4 probably is some default creeping in. I'd do something like \new Voice { \clef "bass" \key f \major \temporary\omit Stem \once\omit Staff.TimeSignature \cadenzaOn c'4 d' c'( f') f' \cadenzaOff \bar "|" \undo\omit Stem \time 3/4 r r f } \addlyrics { Ma -- gni -- fi -- cat A } > I know I can use a hidden 5/4 time signature while diplaying a 4/4 > one, but that’s not that satisfying… Just use \cadenza here. This stuff is unmetered. -- David Kastrup ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

You can use a quintuplet with the bracket and number hidden: \once \omit TupletBracket \once \omit TupletNumber \tuplet 5/4 { ... } 2. You can scale the duration of any note on the fly using the "*N/M" syntax, which will cascade to subsequent notes with the duration omitted: c4*4/5 3. You can use \scaleDurations to scale an entire passage: \scaleDurations 4/5 { ... } So, take your pick! I think #2 would be the simplest here because you only need to indicate the duration + scale on the first quarter note of the first bar and it will apply to them all.

Is this a « bug » in this MusicXML file, and if not, is there a way to produce that with LP? I know I can use a hidden 5/4 time signature while diplaying a 4/4 one, but that’s not that satisfying… Or maybe the absence of stems is the key to that? But I found nothing in the LP docs. You can see below how Finale 2014 handles that. From the image it’s totally obvious that the mistake is writing 4/4 in the first place. I guess it just sneaked in there being the default, but actually this ‘Magnificat’ is chant and should not have any time signature.
