Just take a look, maybe this helps (i've tried this right now, and,
surprisingly enough, this works.-):
%--------------- 8<------------------------
makeFor = #'choir
#(define myStaff (if (eq? makeFor 'piano)
"PianoStaff"
"ChoirStaff"))
\score {
\new \myStaff <<
\new Staff {
c''
}
\new Staff {
c'
}
>>
}
%----------------8<------------------------
This would require more "if" checks in your case, i guess. I it would work for
you at all.
Like this, you may, for example,
#(define lowerStaff (if (....) "Devnull" "TabStaff")
and then use it.
Maybe this helps.
ps. Anyway, Lilypond is great, thanks to everyone who makes it even better.
