Re: Repeat midi using "repeat volta"

[Gilles]

Hello.

> Hi.... this should work right?

Well...  It doesn't, hence I started to reorganize your example
so that it would look like the layout I'm used to; and this
works:

%-----
\version "2.6.3"

pentatonic = \relative c {
  \time 4/4
  \repeat volta 20 {
    a8\6 c\6 d\5 e\5 g\4 a\4 c\3 d\3 e\2 g\2 a\1 c\1
    a\1 g\2 e\2 d\3 c\3 a\4 g\4 e\5 d\5 c\6
  }
}

guitar = \context Staff = "guitar" {
  \set Staff.midiInstrument = "acoustic guitar (nylon)"
  \key a \minor
  \clef "G_8"
  \pentatonic
}

guitartab = \context TabStaff = "guitartab" {
  \override Beam #'transparent = ##t
  \override Stem #'transparent = ##t
  \pentatonic
}

\score {
  <<
    \guitar
    \guitartab
  >>
  \layout {}
}

\score {
  \unfoldRepeats \guitar
  \midi { \tempo 4 = 120 }
}

So, you can compare your way of doing things to the above
and figure out why yours didn't work. [To start: I think
that having several contexts with the same name is not
good...].
