Whether or not you need to do this for the layout you require, you can always have a separate score block for midi output. i.e. just append to your file something like: \score { << { s1*4 \VoiceMusic } { \PianoRHMusicIntro \PianoRHMusic } { \PianoLHMusicIntro \PianoLHMusic } >> \midi { } } -- Mark Knoop _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
