Re: percussion (drum set) help

Hi, you could also override or tweak the staff-position of the rest. It seems more inline with what the intention is, but it warns you about the stems (don't know how to fix that): \score{ \new DrumStaff \drummode{ \clef percussion << { cymr4 4 4 4 } \\ { \once \override

Re: (OT) New User introduction

(OT) Back in the '60s I had a blind piano teacher. She was a regular attender at the Methodist Church. The Methodist Hymn Book of that period had just under 1,000 hymns, some with alternate tunes. Neatly stacked in one of the pews were a pile of large format books (from memory about A3 size).

Hey list ... I wanted to thank all of you who responded. Your comments were very helpful and I've now incorporated all of them. I've completed my first transcription: J.S. Bach's Art of the Fugue, Contrapunctus I from string quartet into brass quartet.

I am trying to write a scheme to achieve the functionality I was asking about in my earlier message . I think that I could do it with a simple callback function on the NoteHead.transparent property and make the notehead

Re: Newbie having trouble with transposition(s)

Beside that monster "minimal"  example it becomes clear that with % Global definitions global = {   \time 2/2   \key d \minor   s1*78   \bar "|." } the key is set global. Global is global, so you get the key of d-minor for the whole code. (It is a guess, I cannot check it with that code fragment.)

stanza alignment

Hi list, when I have multiple verses the stanza numbers are aligned. This works also I put some verses above the a staff and some below. But it doesn’t work anymore if I then add another staff. Any ideas how to solve this problem? Is this a bug? Cheers, Malte %

Hi list, it seems like \= doesn’t work for \startGroup and \stopGroup as it does for slurs and phrasing slurs. Any ideas how to achieve the same effect for analysis brackets? Cheers, Malte %% \version "2.19.80" % this is nice \relative { \cadenzaOn
