First of all the details - v2.6.5 (I know it's "old") on Win XP Home...
I am trying to create a "lead sheet" of sorts that has a lead vocal line, a
backing vocal line, a bass line, and a rhythm context that shows the basic
chord charges.
So I have 5 variables:
leadvox, backvox, harmonies (\chordmode), beat (\context RhythmicStaff),
bline. After the definition of the notes and rhythms for leadvox and
backvox I have \addlyrics blocks, so the code looks roughly like this:
leadvox = {....}
\addlyrics {la la la...}
backvox = {...}
\addlyrics {hey my my lordy be...}
\harmonies = \chordmode {..chords/rhythms...}
\beat = \context RhythmicStaff {...basically the same code as the
\harmonies...}
\bline = {...bass line - will be fairly developed as I've been basically a
bassist for a few years...}
and I put them together like this:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\score
{
<<
\context Voice = one
{
\autoBeamOff
\leadvox
}
\context Voice = two
{
\autoBeamOff
\backvox
}
\context ChordNames
{
\set chordChanges = ##t
%\set fontSize = #-1.5
\harmonies
}
\context Rhythm
{
\beat
}
\context Voice = three
{
\bline
}
\layout { }
}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Now, it seems, no matter how I do this the lyrics come out on the bottom,
and while I haven't gotten to it yet, when the vocal parts overlap I'm going
to have a problem I think...
What I'd like to know how to do is add the lyrics to the specific variable
and force those lyrics to render underneath the stave for that voice.
Thanks!
