Support for 4 hands piano sheet #220

To my knowledge, there is no way to express such layout in MusicXML 3.0. Moreover, changing music layout is beyond the scope of Audiveris. |
In standard notation, music flows from one system to the next, and from one page to the next. By introducing odd/even pages, we require the OMR engine to "jump" over each other page. For example orphan slurs at the end of a page will need to be connected to orphan slurs at the beginning of the "next" page, and of course "next" here has a very special meaning, not +1 but +2. A very specific feature. Instead, I would suggest that you have a look at issue #232 your request is a bit different but you could use a similar workaround. With PDFSAM utility, you could easily gather every other page into a "primo" PDF and the others into a "secundo" PDF. Then ask Audiveris to transcribe each PDF into MusicXML and finally "merge" the two instruments with help of a music editor like MuseScore, Finale, etc... |
This sounds like a good workaround to me, despite some inconvenience. This way, you'll get the desired output much more quicker than trying to hack Audiveris to support this very specific layout. |
I'll settle with the workaround as it should work perfectly for my use case anyway. |
Some four hands piano sheets have a page/page layout, where left page is for left player and right page is for right player.
The two pages are meant to be played at the same time.
We need a way to tell Audiveris that every 2 pages needs to be played at the same time.
