Patrick,
The location of the rest can be “pitch” specified. Change the third line to: \new Voice { \oneVoice r4 b’\rest \voiceOne g' } Mark From: lilypond-user-bounces+carsonmark=ca.rr....@gnu.org [mailto:lilypond-user-bounces+carsonmark=ca.rr....@gnu.org] On Behalf Of Patrick Karl Sent: Friday, February 12, 2016 9:35 AM To: lilypond-user <lilypond-user@gnu.org> Subject: positioning a rest I'm trying to duplicate the following measure: My attempt: \version "2.19.32" { \new Staff << \time 3/4 \new Voice { \oneVoice r4 r \voiceOne g' } \new Voice { \voiceTwo s4 c'2 } >> } This works fine for everything but the second quarter-rest, which is positioned beneath the half-note middle-C: I've tried several variations of the above snippet, but the rest either move up to the \voiceOne position or remains firmly beneath the middle-C. How can I get the second rest to be positioned in the middle of the staff, at the same level as the first rest? Thanks. Pat
