6.7.7 Measure repeats

In the percent style, a note pattern can be repeated. It is printed once, and then the pattern is replaced with a special sign. Patterns of one and two measures are replaced by percent-like signs, patterns that divide the measure length are replaced by slashes. Percent repeats must be declared within a Voice context.

     \new Voice \relative c' {
       \repeat "percent" 4 { c4 }
       \repeat "percent" 2 { c2 es2 f4 fis4 g4 c4 }
     }
