Hello.

The code:

(6abc``def

is (normally) interpreted as 6 notes in the time of 2 notes.
Try use a more precise syntax for tuplets, like:

(6:4abc``def

which stands for 6 notes in the time of 4 notes;

or the complete form:

(6:4:6abc``def

which stands for a proportion of 6 notes in the time of 4, for the next 6
notes; so it's possible do this:

(6:4:4cd2``ef2

Best wishes.

But what's the apostrophe for? And what ascii character is it and how is it produced on keyboards anyway?
