This puzzle is more pleasant than making sudokus
I tried a solution, i hope i have understand what you meant.
As it is not possible to shrink the number of staffs in an instrument, i
tried to put the staffs above each other.
using
\\interstaff{0}\
or Ai0.0 or AI0.0
The distance between the instrument can be made by ie:
\setinterinstrument1{10\Interligne}
Problems: putting the staffs above each other needs the same clef. But then
the clefs appears at the end of the previous line. This can be voided by
using a new movement (L4M) in the example.
But when de system starts on a new page it become more difficult. I have to
use something as:
\\let\ejectsav\eject\
\\\def\eject{\let\eject\ejectsav\def\contpiece{\
\\\------------put here the needed commands-------
\\\startpiece\addspace\afterruleskip\let\contpiece\holdcont}\eject}\
I have used this before, but i have not tested it now.
I put here an example and also the scr2prt with the schrinked staffs

Subject: [TeX-music] Changing number of staves per instrument in midstream
I've come up on this puzzle. Using PMX, I've made a score that has 6
instruments, each with one staff except the third (up from the bottom)
which
has two. So seven staves total. When I run scor2prt I get six parts, and
the
third one (piano) has two staves as expected.
In midstream, I'd like to change the number of staves in the third
instrument from 2 to 1, then later back to 2. Obviously if making the
piano
part from scratch I could start with two single-staff instruments and
manually insert the curly bracket, then reduce to one instrument and later
increase back to two. But I haven't been able to figure out how to do this
in the PMX file for the score, and get it to pass thru scor2prt like I
want.
BTW it's only in the printed separate part for the third instrument that I
really want the change in number of staves; if necessary I could live with
no such change in the printed score, and maybe an extra brank line.
Any ideas?
