I’ve often wondered [only to myself] whether the Ambitus engraver could be
tweaked to output a graphical cluster, the thickness of which would depend on
the number of times that note appears in the piece (or total duration of each
note, etc.) — that way, a pretty reliable judgement could be made just by
looking at the ambitus, and seeing where the "bulges" were (if any).
Cheers,
Kieren.
