13Mid-measure parameter changes

16The group attributes can optionally be preceded by mid-measure
17parameter changes.
18This is not used very often, but the most common
19use is to change the
20<A HREF="param.html#clef">clef</A>
21in the middle of a measure. There are two
22other parameters that can also be changed here:
23<A HREF="param.html#defoct">defoct</A>
24and
25<A HREF="param.html#release">release.</A>
26The change is enclosed in double angle brackets.
27After the opening angle bracket is the
28<A HREF="contexts.html">context</A>
29to which the changes applies (score, staff, or voice),
30followed by one or more parameter changes.
31<BR><PRE>
321: c; e; &lt;&lt;score clef=bass&gt;&gt; 2g;
33bar

36If there is more than one parameter listed, they are separated by semicolons.
37<BR><PRE>
38&lt;&lt; staff clef = tenor ; defoct = 4 &gt;&gt;

42If you wish to change parameters in more than one context, multiple
43angle-bracketed items can be given:
44<BR><PRE>
452-3 2: 2c; &lt;&lt;score release=100&gt;&gt;&lt;&lt;staff clef=alto&gt;&gt;&lt;&lt;voice defoct=3&gt;&gt; c;
46</PRE><BR>
47</P>
48<P>
49If you specify &quot;staff&quot; or &quot;voice&quot; context, the specific staff(s) or voice(s)
50to which the changes apply is based on which staff(s) or voice(s)
51are being described on the input line. So in the example above,
52the clef is changed to alto on staffs 2 and 3, and the defoct is
53changed to 3 for voice 2 on both of those staffs. The release change
54applies to the entire score.
