Hi Christopher,
it's due to the changes for 'EventChord. Until 2.15.x (don't remember
the exact version) every single note was wrapped into an 'EventChord.
Look at the output from:
\displayMusic { d8 e }
2.14.2 returns:
(make-music
'SequentialMusic
'elements
(list (make-music
'EventChord
'elements
(list (make-music
'NoteEvent
'duration
(ly:make-duration 3 0 1 1)
'pitch
(ly:make-pitch -1 1 0))))
(make-music
'EventChord
'elements
(list (make-music
'NoteEvent
'duration
(ly:make-duration 3 0 1 1)
'pitch
(ly:make-pitch -1 2 0))))))
2.16.2 and later returns:
(make-music
'SequentialMusic
'elements
(list (make-music
'NoteEvent
'duration
(ly:make-duration 3 0 1)
'pitch
(ly:make-pitch -1 1 0))
(make-music
'NoteEvent
'duration
(ly:make-duration 3 0 1)
'pitch
(ly:make-pitch -1 2 0))))
A quick fix would be to wrap the music into EventChords again.
sw = #(define-music-function (parser location notes) (ly:music?)
(let ((swing (make-music
'SequentialMusic
'elements
(list
(make-music
'RelativeOctaveMusic
'element
(make-music
'SequentialMusic
'elements
(swing-eighths
(ly:music-deep-copy
(ly:music-property
(ly:music-property
(car (ly:music-property
(event-chord-wrap! notes) ;; !!!!!!!!
'elements))
'element)
'elements))
'()
#f)))))))
#{
\tag #'layout { $notes }
\tag #'midi { $swing }
#}
)
)
Alternatively rewrite the functions to work with 'NoteEvent and 'EventChord.
HTH,
Harm
