David,
No, because i was trying to produce (1) a minimal example for the case that the
free rhythm passage ends at the bar end, and (2) in words only, a hypothetical
example where it doesn't. I obviously wasn't clear enough about the two cases.
So here's a rather longer one. the top score is a development of the original
example, the bottom one shows what happens in my second case, where the final
crochets of each staff should align. In both cases the bass line counting goes
wrong.
I've tried putting the free rhythm section in parallel with a silent note, with
the intention of making sure that there was a proper duration for the section.
This gives interesting results: the accompaniment gives a barcheck error even
though the durations of the notes in that staff are correct. If you comment out
the melody line there's no error. So there's obviously some interaction between
the free rhythm section and other staves. Also, if you replace the final 'e' in
the melody by 'R1' the rest goes in the wrong place.
\language "english"
\version "2.19.83"
\score {
<<
\new Staff {
\time 4/4
{
%%{
c'4 4 4 4 |
4 4 << {\cadenzaOn d'8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 \cadenzaOff} s2 >> \bar "|"
e'1
%}
}
}
\new Staff {
\time 4/4
\clef "bass"
{
c1
c4 4 r2\fermata |
c1
}
}
>>
}
\score {
<<
\new Staff {
\time 4/4
{
%%{
c'4 4 4 4 |
4 4 << {\cadenzaOn d'8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 \cadenzaOff} s4 >> g'4 \bar "|"
e'1
%}
}
}
\new Staff {
\time 4/4
\clef "bass"
{
c1
c4 4 r4\fermata g,4 |
c1
}
}
>>
}
Best regards,
Peter
