Thanks for your research. I agree that there must be tied notes if one wants this melody to be in 3/4 meter. However, i'm not sure about 6/8. My "pure reasoning" is that a measure in 6/8 meter divides like this: 4. + 4. 8+8+8 + 8+8+8 (16+16)+(16+16)+(16+16) + (16+16)+(16+16)+(16+16) If one wants to have 16+16+16 + 16+16+16 + 16+16+16 + 16+16+16 grouping, shouldn't 12/16 meter be used? cheers, Janek _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
