Mark,

 

If I understand you correctly, this is because of a single \relative a the beginning of the polyphony. Yes? Like,

 

\relative c' {

  << 

    \new Voice { \voiceOne ... }

    \new Voice { \voiceTwo ... }

  >>

}

 

Then, yes, whatever pitch is used last in the \voiceOne section will determine the relative starting point of the first pitch in the \voiceTwo section. One workaround that I have used is to do something like this:

 

\relative c' {

  << 

    \new Voice { \voiceOne ... }

    \new Voice \relative c' { \voiceTwo ... }

  >>

}

 

Or something like that. That way, the \voiceTwo section will always start relative to c' instead.

 

HTH,

Abraham

Hello!

 

When inputting code for polyphony, e.g. a fugue, using  explicit voices (<< \new voice { voiceOne … } \new voice { voiceTwo } >> ), the first note of voiceTwo is placed, octave wise, in relation to the last note set in voiceOne. As the last note entered in voiceOne changes octave, all of voiceTwo moves up or down. The only way I could find to avoid this was to set all of voiceOne and then set voiceTwo.

 

Does an alternative exist?

 

Thank you for your kind attention.

 

Mark
