As far as I know, you can make the sweeps clear to your drummer by writing them down as tied notes. Every note will represent the lenght of a brush sweep. So, for instance: \drums { \time 3/4 sn2^brush ~ sn4 ~ | sn4 ~ sn2 } Jethro. On Thu, 27 Aug 2009, craigbakalian wrote: Hi,

Snare Brush Notation

Hi, Does anyone out there know the proper notation for a snare drum with a pair of wire brushes - where the drummer does that circle gesture on the drum head to produce a sustained sound, and sometimes the other hand plays a different beat? I know this isn't lily specific, but it is notation.
