Re: Notes are going octaves down [solved]

2007-04-09 Thread Jesús Guillermo Andrade
Thanks Anthony. I have solved the problem by separating the voices and
using two "relative" commands based on different octaves. Thus the notes
are all right now.
Having said that, your recommendation seems very interesting and I'll
save it for another document Im working on.

I don't know if I've understood you correctly, but I think I have
exactly the same problem in one of my pieces. I want to insert a
fragment in a '\relative' bit of music, and the octave keeps going
wrong. Han Wen gave me a solution, which I attach below.

He gave me the "resetOctave" function. Note that every time, in the main
music, I preface my references to "\pennsylvania" with "\resetOctave".
That forces the first note in \pennsylvania to be relative to the
absolute pitch note mentioned in \resetOctave, and not to the last note
of music that preceded it.

I think this should have been added to the documentation somewhere, but
don't ask me where - I've never seen it, because I've never really
looked for it. Once Han Wen gave me the function, I grabbed and ran with
it.

\version "2.8.2"

resetOctave  =
#(define-music-function
(parser location reference-note)
(ly:music?)

   (let*
((notes (ly:music-property reference-note 'elements))
 (pitch (ly:music-property (car notes) 'pitch))

   )

(set! (ly:music-property reference-note 'elements) '())
(set! (ly:music-property reference-note
   'to-relative-callback)
   (lambda (music last-pitch)
pitch))

reference-note
))

pennsylvania = \context Voice = pennsylvania {
\override NoteHead #'style = #'cross

2007-04-04 Thread Jesús Guillermo Andrade
Thanks Joseph for your prompt reply! I tried your suggestion but,
instead of fixing the notes, they went way off even further down.
After many tries, i found a solution: each sequence must be preceded by
a \relative fa, so the position restarts.
Is there any other way to do this?

   \relative fa
