Hello, I want to see exactly what shows this minimal example, except that the "space" is not desired. This is from an hymn melody and I do the SATB setting. So I would like to have the original "optic". And with so short repeats, it doesnt make sense to enlarge the alternative. Now, without the s8, the half-note of alternative 2. begins in the remaining half-beat and so the rest of the song. Thats why. Thanks in advance
