Greetings Paul,
It would be best to see a code example. However, I have done this
several times. You need to give the lower staff of the first piano a
name, and then tell that temporary staff to be placed under that named
context. Here is a template for just one piano, where staves are added
above and below:
\score {
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff = up {
\relative c' {
MUSIC
<<
\new Voice {
\oneVoice MORE MUSIC
}
\new Staff \with {
alignAboveContext = #"up"
}
{
ADDED STAFF
}
>>
}
}
\new Staff = down {
\relative c' {
MUSIC
<<
\new Voice {
\oneVoice MORE MUSIC
}
\new Staff \with {
alignBelowContext = #"down"
}
{
ADDED STAFF
}
>>
}
}
>>
}
