Hoofdstuk 3: Fundamentele concepten 68
Changing a single context
To remove an engraver from a single context we use the \with command placed immediately
after the context creation command, as in the previous section.
As an illustration, let’s repeat an example from the previous section with the staff lines
removed. Remember that the staff lines are produced by the Staff_symbol_engraver.
\new Staff \with {
\remove "Staff_symbol_engraver"
}
\relative c' {
c4 d
\set fontSize = #-4 % make note heads smaller
e4 f |
\set fontSize = #2.5 % make note heads larger
g4 a
\unset fontSize % return to default size
b4 c |
}
Engravers can also be added to individual contexts. The command to do this is
\consists Engraver_name,
placed inside a \with block. Some vocal scores have an ambitus placed at the beginning of a
staff to indicate the range of notes in that staff – see Sectie “ambitus” in Terminologie. The
ambitus is produced by the Ambitus_engraver, which is not normally included in any context.
If we add it to the Voice context, it calculates the range from that voice only:
\new Staff
