what the documentation neglects to suggest is the following:
%%% SNIP SNAP %%%
\include "articulate.ly"
musicStuff = {
c4-. d-. e-. f-.
}
% this will create graphical output
\score {
<< \musicStuff >>
\layout {}
}
% this will only create MIDI output
\score {
\unfoldRepeats \articulate << \musicStuff >>
\midi {}
}
%%% SNAP SNIP %%%
that will give you an untouched PDF and an articulated MIDI, iirc.
regards,
sb
