Subject: Fighting with \cadenzaOn (and loosing :( )
Hi all, sorry for my newbyism, maybe I just know about 10% (at most) of
LilyPond, but I can't leave it because of the wonderfful graphical output
...
I made a score of a Gregorian chant as I've seen on the web using modern
notation; using Musescore it was easy to say that a beat should not be 4/4
but sometimes a 13/8 or 9/8; I exported it to an .xml file and succeeded
in
making it as I would using \cadenzaOn, gaining a score with the a-capo I
wished, BUT it was just a one voice score. Now I'm fighting with a SATB
version of the same score (In Paradisum deducant te Angeli), and can't
reaally succeed to make it look as I would. I'm inserting \break \bar "|"
but it doesn't work as I wouldI made a lot of tryings but with no success.
Can anyone work on my file to make it correct and explain me what i'm
doing
wrong? Many thanks.
When you have a multi-staff (probably actually multi-voice) piece, there
must be a a point where the music is not continuous in all parts for
lilypond to find somewhere to put line breaks. So, for example, if you had
one voice singing half-note then a full string of whole notes, and the other
just singing whole notes, there would be no-where for lilypond to break,
since one voice is always active at any moment.
So: check you've got all the note lengths correct: there is almost certainly
a cadence point where all the voices pause.
If you can't see a problem, feel free to mail your lilypond file and scan of
music direct to me and I'll take a look.
