Hello OROD,

I do it like this:

fluteNotes = \relative c''' {
  \transposition c % this indicates the correct pitch for cues and midi
  \key c \major
  ... the music in c ...
}

clarinetNotes = \relative c'' {
  \transposition bes % this indicates the correct pitch for cues and midi
  \key d \major
  ... the music in bes ...
}

hornNotes = \relative c {
  \transposition f % this indicates the correct pitch for cues and midi
  \key g \major
  ... the music in f ...
}

For a score in C you do:

\score {
  <<
    \new Staff \fluteNotes
    \new Staff \transpose c bes, \clarinetNotes % this transposes your
Bb-Voice into C
    \new Staff \transpose c f, \hornNotes
  >>
  \layout {}
  \midi {}
}

Cheers,
Markus
