Hi Molly,
you can subdivide beams. F. ex.: \score { \absolute { \set subdivideBeams = ##t \set baseMoment = #(ly:make-moment 1/8) \set beatStructure = 2,2,2,2 \tuplet 3/2 { f ''16 c'' f'' } c'' f'' } } See https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.23/Documentation/notation/beams?fbclid=IwAR1Qn9DKr2gszNhQanwlIFzN0U9tHDrSBqydvvWdmT7PLP6_Lq7ocB8jwjs#setting-automatic-beam-behavior (https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.23/Documentation/notation/beams?fbclid=IwAR1Qn9DKr2gszNhQanwlIFzN0U9tHDrSBqydvvWdmT7PLP6_Lq7ocB8jwjs#setting-automatic-beam-behavior) for more examples. —Martín. www.martinrinconbotero.com > > On Nov 27, 2022 at 5:45 PM, <Molly Preston > (mailto:mollypresto...@gmail.com)> wrote: > > > > > I am working with a texture of triplet 16ths that occasionally are duple > 16ths.
