The bass recorder reads bass clef, but it sounds an octave higher than

"F^8"
But the little '8' is printed way above the clef. Is there a way
to lower
the '8' to right above the clef?
Thanks for any help.
Here's how I solved that very problem in a piece for recorders that
I'm currently writing:
\clef "bass^8"
\override Staff.OctavateEight #'Y-offset = #1.8
\override Staff.OctavateEight #'X-offset = #0.6
That puts the little 8 closer to the clef, and looking a little more
centered to my liking.
Hope this helps.
