You can force a manual ottava bracket by setting ottavation. This
will allow you to bypass the usual \ottava code which sets
middleCPosition for all voices:
\relative c {
\clef bass
<<
{ <fis cis' g'>2~ <fis cis' g'>2~ < fis cis' g'>4 }
\\
{
s2 r4 r16
\set middleCPosition = #13
\set Staff.ottavation = #"8vb"
\override Staff.OttavaBracket #'direction = #DOWN
<b,,,!~ bes'^~>8. <b bes'>4.
\ottava #0
}
>>
}
Cheers,
Neil
