Re: Score Layout, several questions

[N. Andrew Walsh]

oh, heavens! I'm sorry, I didn't mean I was trying to reproduce them (and yes, that's what I meant about the score: it looks like that, though with oval noteheads. Just figuring out what printing technology they were using would be interesting to me. I wonder if they were deliberately using older types because of the liturgical nature of the material). I just meant it's interesting work transcribing it into modern notation. No, I do intend for the score to be a fully modern edition. 

Anyway, no, I didn't mean to imply I actually wanted to reproduce that notation. Just that it's fun (?) to read.

Thanks for the tips on Beam.damping. I'll fiddle around with it.

Cheers,

A

Perhaps something like the attached image?  FWIW when I set these, under _no circumstances_ do I try to replicate the non-continuous staff lines.

Where you refer to:

"the originals are engraved using single-press typesetting (ie, each note is its own block, so staff-lines and whatnot aren't continuous), so it's an interesting exercise in historical scores.”

I'm unsure what you mean by "trying to engrave the gaps in the staff lines between the type sorts".
