This doesn't sound logical; my bet is that it is a bug. However, I can't really tell without having a working example and trying it for myself. Please submit a minimal working example to the bug- list.

Take the following snippet. There are two staves; the second one transposes in MIDI using \transposition a , whilst the first does not. Process it in 2.8.4 and listen to the generated MIDI. It clearly sounds like crap; this is because the first instrument is being transposed like the second.

\simultaneous {
           \new Staff <<
            \new Voice { \InstrumentI }
        >>
\new Staff <<
            \partcombine
                \relative c'' { \InstrumentIIA }
                \relative g' { \InstrumentIIB }
        >>
}
\layout {}

\midi { }

% end snippet

Now, I know why this osmosis happens. If both \InstrumentIIA and \InstrumentIIB include \transposition a , this problem occurs. Delete it from \InstrumentIIB, and \InstrumentI sounds at concert pitch.

My question is: is this a bug? This is not the first time this has happened to me when writing up a score, and it's taken many days to pinpoint the cause. If it's intentional, it's not logical.

I have to smile and remember
when you accuse me of that smell
