I most often use lead sheet (one or two voices, lyrics and guitar chords, more stanzas below) or the same for choir (i.e. 4 voices, guitar chords, additional stanzas). I also prepared a template for rounds - while they fit easily into a general lead sheet for printing, they need a bit more work for multi-voice MIDI output. But I didn’t use it often enough to be content with it yet. I can provide my templates and include file, they serve me rather well, but I don’t think they will fit some majority, and are a mixture of different kinds of settings that you’ll better decouple: - spacing - fonts - header - "hide everything that I don’t need/like" (no indent of first line, no measure numbering, no page numbers) - chord display (e.g. lowercase letters for minor chords, no symbol for maj7) - MIDI setup (instrument, volume, stereo settings) - shortcuts for some common tweaks (e.g. chords in braces, smaller or cross note heads...) My templates contain a lot of commented lines with commands/tweaks that I sometimes use, so that I don’t need to look them up again. That might fit templates in Frescobaldi, but isn’t suitable for stylesheets that you just include without looking at them.
