FW: Whole measure rests in Compound duple meter
Can't figure out why sometimes these don't go through From: vegasart...@hotmail.com To: lilypond-user@gnu.org Subject: Whole measure rests in Compound duple meter Date: Tue, 9 Dec 2014 15:46:14 -0800 Trying to figure out the notation for whole measure rests in 6/8 time. My work around right now is r2. which seems to fill up the measure but I find this aesthetically unpleasant. Is there another way.

My work around right now is r2. which seems to fill up the measure but I find this aesthetically unpleasant. Is there another way. I think the following is succinct and correct: * the notation for a whole measure rest in a time signature of m/n, e.g., 6/8 or 5/4 or even 4/4,is: R1*m/n (the fraction m/n can be reduced to lowest terms, and if the result is 1, it can be eliminated.) * for a sequence of k whole measure rests in a row, the notation is: R1*m/n*k Examples: * a whole measure rest in \time 6/8 is R1*6/8, or, equivalently, R1*3/4 * a sequence of 3 whole rests in \time 6/8 is R1*6/8*3 ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
