Re: synchronization of feathered beams

Top posting because of HTML original. Stefan, featherDurations changes the tempo of the notes. Thus the notes at the start of the bar have a longer duration than those at the end, and I presume LilyPond is having a problem applying this to the longer rests. This may not give the appearance

Re: How to set different bar number format every nth bar?

16-channel limit with larger scores

2010-09-30 Thread Jeff Barnes
I apologize if this question has been asked before. I want to write a full score for big band and somehow overcome the 15 staff limit for midi playback. If I could merge the alto and tenor staves from 4 to 1, and do the same for trumpets and bones, I would have few enough staves for midi

thanks Phil: I am trying to build a set of re-useable metric modulations - and I'm favoring the Carter-style in which the '=' is centered on the barline. I have a music function which creates the appropriate \tempo \markup (and midi tempo changes thanks to Neil Puttock) from 2 durations, and

Beaming to rests over system breaks

Hey Lilyponders, Below I have two solutions to the same problem: one seems like it should work but doesn't, whereas the other is kludgy and makes lily irate with warnings but works. Any suggestions for a happy medium? \version 2.13.35 % seems like it should work but doesn't \score { \new

Well I am not sure I am any closer with this solution because the wrong type of bar is being printed? \version 2.13.34 #(define (always-single-printEnd grob) (set! (ly:grob-property grob 'glyph-name) |.) (ly:bar-line::print grob)) endBar = { \once \override Staff.BarLine #'stencil =

notes sharing stems

\version 2.13.34 I've got three percussion voices sharing a staff. When I made the bottom two voices be \voiceTwo and \voiceFour, I got downward stems, but each note had its own stem. Then I tried making them both be \voiceTwo. That gave me the printed output that I wanted: when notes

Hello, Thanks for releasing 2.13.35, the spacing problem in 2.13.34 has been solved, and I'm 99% satisfied with it, except that the overture still compiles out 4 pages more than 2.13.24. However, I'll jump to this version before 2.14's out. Regards Haipeng

Mike, My plan A was to specify the beam positions. However, the beam insists on staying horizontal regardless of the position override (probably for the same reason that it didn't work to simply giving the rest a pitch). Plan B would be to use hidden notes. If we put them a bit earlier
