Uh… \bf throws an error…?
Is that a function my copy of 2.19.56 should have?
Without it, and incorporating the rest into a compilable snippet:
%%% SNIPPET BEGINS
\version "2.19.56"
\language english
bassclarinet = {
\clef F
\transposition bf,
\set Staff.midiInstrument = "clarinet"
\set Staff.instrumentCueName = \markup "cl. B"
\set Staff.instrumentName = "bass clarinet"
\set Staff.shortInstrumentName = "bc"
}
clarinet = {
\clef G
\transposition bf
\set Staff.midiInstrument = "clarinet"
\set Staff.instrumentCueName = \markup "cl. B"
\set Staff.instrumentName = "clarinet"
\set Staff.shortInstrumentName = "cl"
}
global = {
\key c \major s1
\key f \major s1
\key g \major s1
\key d \major s1
}
clarnotes = {
\clarinet g1
\bassclarinet g1
\clarinet g1
\bassclarinet g1
}
\new Staff << \global \clarnotes >>
%%% SNIPPET ENDS
The clef changes are fine… but the transposition doesn’t work as I would
expect/hope it would.
Is there a way to extend this music-function idea to handle all of the
requirements of an instrument switch?
> instrumentCueName would trigger a spurious cue name
It does, as seen in the output of the above snippet.
> the instrument cue engraver could be changed to ignore cue names
> set before the first call of process-music.
Is that the cleanest way to handle the problem?
Thanks,
Kieren.
