Re: Doubling at the octave

[Alex Loomis]

Thanks, that worked. I ended up going with the following since it allows you to use it inside a \relative section, but I'm confused as to why I needed to use \transpose c c'' instead of \transpose c c' for it to work correctly. Could you explain why?

\version "2.17.95" %version change since I switched computers

octava =

#(define-music-function

(parser location music-input)

(ly:music?)

#{

\new Voice << $music-input \transpose c c'' $music-input >>

#})

\relative c' {

\octava { c d e f }

}

I think you need to use $music-input instead of #music-input:

\version "2.16.1"

octava =
#(define-music-function
(parser location music-input)
(ly:music?)
#{
\partcombine $music-input \transpose c c' $music-input
#})
\octava { c' d' e' }

(Note I don't have 2.16.2 installed, so I changed it to 2.16.1 but I don't
think that should make a difference here.)

HTH,
