I have a situation that seems like it would be straightforward. I
want four eighth notes beamed with the first eighth looking like a
half note. I thought I could just do this:
{ b2*1/4[ b'8 b' b'] }
But that code doesn't attach the beam to the first note and produces
two warnings:
warning: stem does not fit in beam
warning: beam was started here
What am I doing wrong?
This is working as expected. The principle of the *x/y modifiers
is that they change the duration without changing anything else
to the notation. From the notation point of view, you're trying
to beam a half note, which can't be done.
Aaron already gave the solution.
