this works for now. Although it looks a bit messy when flags, rest, triplets etc. show up in each and every voice. This shorthand takes care of most of the "garbage". I use it now on all the voices I don't want to have Stems/Beams/tuplets whatever and revert it later. NHonly = { % Remove everything exept note heads. % Add more if needed, but also do the \revert % in NHreverts! \override Voice.Stem #'transparent = ##t \override Voice.Beam #'transparent = ##t \override Voice.TupletBracket #'transparent = ##t \override Voice.TupletNumber #'transparent = ##t \override Voice.Rest #'transparent = ##t \override Voice.MultiMeasureRest #'transparent = ##t } NHreverts = { \revert Voice.Stem #'transparent \revert Voice.Beam #'transparent \revert Voice.TupletBracket #'transparent \revert Voice.TupletNumber #'transparent \revert Voice.Rest #'transparent \revert Voice.Rest #'staff-position \revert Voice.MultiMeasureRest #'transparent } Also I'll try the partcombiner some time later to pair voices up and hope that some of the alignmet issues will improve...
