Ok I messed around and in fact I did have a rhythm issue. My remaining
question is about controlling whether or not notes double.
With the following .ly file, I want only the first b' to be doubled. The c'
in the second measure should not be.
---pasillo_n1.ly---
\version "2.18.2"
\header {
title = "Pasillo No. 1"
composer = "Prof Francisco A. Velasquez"
}
<<
{
\time 3/4
\key g \major
r8
<<
\new Voice = "melody"
{ \voiceThree
b'-0 cis''-2[ dis''-4] e''-0[ fis''-1] |
s4 c'''4. b''8 |
g8[ g'] e''4 r8 fis'' |
}
\new Voice { \voiceTwo
b'-3 ais'-3[ a'-1] g'-0[ fis'-3] |
s4 c'''8[ b'] g'[ b''] |
s4 e''8[ b'] g'[ fis''] |
}
\new Voice { \voiceFour
s2 s8 |
e4~ e2 |
g4~ g2 |
}
>>
}
