2.) Sometimes I have a very simple repeat pattern, say, part A repeats
four times.
The only difference is that the third time "c2." gets replaced by "c2
c4" somewhere in the middle due to an additional syllable in the
lyrics.
a) What's the correct way to visually represent that? Drawing the full
c2. plus some additional c4 in parenthesis at the end? How do you type
it in? Or "c2(c4)" with a potentially dashed tie/slur/whatever that is
called.
b) How does one get a correct MIDI file? I can imagine writing
aa = {...}
ab = { c2. | }
ac = { c2 c4 | }
ad = {...}
aA = { \aa \ab \ad }
aB = { \aa \ac \ad}
melodyMIDI = { \aA \aA \aB \aA }
and slightly different approach for engraving to fake proper visual
appearance, but I'm sure there must be a more straightforward way with
some "if this is the third time of repeating this segment, do
something different for this one single note".
