Hi Carl,

I had a look on those, and I was able to get the brackets, but they didn't
look very nice because they were extending from a note to a note, not fro
ma bar line to a bar line. On top of that, the main issue for me here is to
have the "3x" centralized above the bar; the brackets will just make it
look prettier :)

Nevertheless, I will check again the analysis brackets and see if I missed
something out.

Take care!
Gilberto
