Tuplet bracket spacing with multiple voices

Hi guys, This passage is a little tricky to write tidily on one staff, and I might change the way this is done. But the placing of the lower tuplet bracket (covereing the quaver and crotchet rest) doesn't seem to help... \transpose f g { \relative c'{ << { r2 r4 \tuplet 3/2 { c8-. f-. c'-.

Scheme programming pointers

Hi all, I can probably work a lot out on my own, but if someone could direct me to any Lilypond-specific Scheme tutorials that might help with the idea I'm thinking about, that would be super! My idea is to remove a lot of boilerplate for score creation. Thus I can have music defined as:

Hi guys, I've searched a bit for hints on this and couldn't come up with anything relevant. I may be using the wrong search terms. This is a very short excerpt from a piece I'm writing where the midi playback is broken. It's not the end of the world for the finished product, but it is very
