Hey Jef,
The system you mentioned isn't practical because there are two
congas. I'm currently using a five-line staff with the top space
indicating the high conga and the second-from-bottom space indicating
the low conga -- I'd like to stick with that if possible. (I don't
generally like single-line percussion staves -- they look old-
fashioned to me.)
The elbow effect only happens once.
Cheers,
- Darcy

What do you think the most concise way of notating and explaining
the desired effect would be? (The part is for a classical
percussionist.)
since it's classical and not latin percussionist, i would go for a
2-line staff (use treble staff lines G/D) with below the line open
and above the line closed/elbow ("lower" and "higher" pitch).
gliss line (straight) and make all but start/end noteheads blank.
i have done similar and percussionists find this kind of thing
intuitive to read.
explain it in the legend if it happens more than once, otherwise a
text note in the score where it occurs.
