Use \musicMap to scale the notes:

#(define (scale-notes music)
   (if (music-is-of-type? music 'rhythmic-event)
       (let* ((len (ly:music-length music))
              ;; set default duration for notes
              (base-mom (ly:make-moment 1 4))
              (scale (ly:moment-div base-mom len)))
         (ly:music-compress music scale)))
   music)

\new Staff \musicMap #scale-notes \relative c' {
  \cadenzaOn
  c\breve c1. c2 c4 c8. c16 c32 c64 c128 r8 r4 r2
}
