I reduced the height of the staff and increased the volta padding so the volta number would clear the chords. Thry something like this: . . . Lots of stuff omitted \context Staff = melody < \property Staff . verticalExtent = #'(-4 . 3.5) \property Staff . minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-1 . 1) . . . Lots more stuff omitted \paper { \translator { \StaffContext VoltaBracket \override #'padding = #3 %pts } } Note that 3.5 is the staff height you need to play with. Good luck! Scott Ainsworth" Hope this works for you. And thanks to Scott if he is still out there.
