+Perhaps you'd like a 4-part vocal piece written on 4 separate staffs,
+as well as a piano reduction on two staffs with 2 voices.
+This could be done using:
+
+score + staffs=6 + bracket=1-4 + brace=5-6 +staff 3 + clef=treble8 +staff 4 + clef=bass +staff 5 + vscheme=2o + staffscale=0.75 // make piano staffs a little smaller +staff 6 + clef=bass + vscheme=2o + staffscale=0.75 + +// Define macros to put each voice on its own staff +// plus the appropriate staff/voice of the piano staffs. +define S 1 1 & 5 1: @ // soprano +define A 2 1 & 5 2: @ // alto +define T 3 1 & 6 1: @ // tenor +define B 4 1 & 6 2: @ // bass + +music +S 2c+;; +A 2f;e; +T 2a;g; +B 2c;; +bar +
+This can also be done using
+chord-at-a-time input style:
+
+// Define a macro to put each voice on its own staff +// plus the appropriate staff/voice of the piano staffs. +// This example assumes inputting notes from bottom to top. +define M [ 4 1 & 6 2; \ + 3 1 & 6 1; \ + 2 1 & 5 2; \ + 1 1 & 5 1 ] : @ + +music + +M 2cafc+;cgec+; +bar +
