What I don’t understand is why and extra ‘_2’ is needed in lyricsManual to obtain the same alignment as in the two automatic cases.
The snippet comes from Rameau’s Les Indes Galantes.
Thanks for your help!

this doesn’t exactly answer your question, but I’ve always found that manual alignment of lyrics is a huge pain to get working and thus never use it…
Best, Simon

The more I read this chapter, and the more I feel it is a kind of imbroglio, mixing automatic and manual alignment of lyrics to the voice.
Do you also feel this would merit a rewrite?
