I'm trying to write the drum score of a 2/4 march (rougly 82bpm). The feel of the piece is a triplet on each 8th note. I won't go into the dissertation on why, but it's easier and more accurate to write the score as 12/16 so that each beat consists of two 16th-note triplets (without all the triplet markers). This is why I want the first six 16ths beamed together, and the remaining notes (7 thorugh 12) beamed.
I guess I don't understand why the first measure groups in 6 but the second doesn't.
Any further advice?
Thanks!

Are you really sure that you want beams across the
beats in the second measure? As a player, I would
find that much more confusing than the layout you
get now from LilyPond. Also, since you want to break
beams at the beat in the first bar, I don't see any way
to configure the auto-beaming to do what you want.
