By default, LilyPond's beaming of eight rest and three eight notes in 4/4 meter is:
r8 c'8[ c'8 c'8] E. Gould on p. 164 states that: Rhythmic figures that are not part of a repeated pattern may be best beamed into separate beats, so that they are not mistaken for triplets nor fot groups of three quavers in compound time: 4/4: c'8 r8 c'8 r8 r8 c'8 c'8[ c'8] rather than 4/4: c'8[ r8 c'8] r8 r8 c'8[ c'8 c'8] Personally, I agree with her view and find that _this_ should be default LP behavior. So beaming in 4/4 should be like: 4/4: c'8[ c'8 c'8 c'8] r8 c'8 c'8[ c'8] How can I force LilyPond to beam like this? _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
