Thanks a lot!

Joel.

You;re welcome.

In future though, I suggest you send emails to

[email protected] as you will get more general help here and usually more people looking at this email list rather than the 'bug' email list.

Regards

James

    Barchecks are the solution here because you would have been told
    immediately that the second 'group' of notes do not fit into a proper
    amount of measures.

    This will cause the long lines.

    I have tried to tidy up your music, perhaps the cutting and pasting lost
    the formatting when you sent the email?

    Anyway I have also add the \numericTimeSignature switch in case that was
    also what you would like - it changes the 'C' to 4/4.

    Your actual problem is the first line of 4/4. I'm not sure exactly what
    rhythm you were trying to achieve so you either had too many 'c32' notes
    or you didn't have enough c16 notes or a combination of the two.

    This will compile properly and I have added the bar checks to be sure.

    \relative c' {
       \clef bass
       \numericTimeSignature
       \time 2/4 <c,,, c,>2 |
       % This next line below is the problem.
       % I've simplified writing out 'c32' 24 times
       \time 4/4 \repeat unfold 24 { c32 } c16 c c c ( c2) r2 |
       \time 4/4 <c, c,>2 <bes bes,> |
       \time 9/8 <aes aes,>1 <g g,>8 |
       \time 4/4 <c c,>2 <bes bes,> |
       \time 9/8 <aes aes,>1 <g g,>8 |
       \time 4/4 <c c,>2 <bes bes,> |
       \time 9/8 <c c,>1 <g g,>8 |
       \time 4/4 <c c,>2 <bes bes,> |
       \time 9/8 <c c,>1 <g g,>8 |
       \time 4/4 <c c,>2 <bes bes,> |
       \time 9/8 <aes aes,>1 <g g,>8 |
       \time 4/4 <c c,>2 <bes bes,> |
       \time 9/8 <aes aes,>1 <g g,>8 |
       \time 4/4 <c, c,>2 <bes bes,> |
       \time 9/8 <aes aes,>1 <g g,>8 |
       \time 4/4 <c c,>2 <bes bes,> |
       \time 9/8 <aes aes,>1 <g g,>8 |
       \time 4/4 <c c,>2 <bes bes,> |
       \time 9/8 <c c,>1 <g g,>8 |
       \time 4/4 <c c,>2 <bes bes,> |
       \time 9/8 <c c,>1 <g g,>8 |
       \time 4/4 <c c,>2 <bes bes,> |
       \time 9/8 <aes aes,>1 <g g,>8 |
       \time 4/4 <c c,>2 <bes bes,> |
       \time 9/8 <aes aes,>1 <g g,>8 |
    }

    I hope this gives you some clues so you can tweak it to your correct
    rhythm.

    James
