Re: Automatic octaves

[Kieren MacMillan]

Hi Daniel,

Does this work?

\version "2.18.0"

\version "2.18.0"
myoctavate =
#(define-music-function (parser location music) (ly:music?)
  #{ \context Bottom << $music \transpose c c' \relative $music >> #})

\relative { \myoctavate { a b c d } e f g a }
%% Instead of
\myoctavate \relative { a b c d e f g a }

Hope this helps!
Kieren.
