Re: variables tied with slurs
Not exaclty, that puts the A patternse in different staffs and there is no tie between them... Thanks for the response though, and sorry it took me so long to get back to this.

Re: variables tied with slurs
This is an interesting approach and it seems like I should be able to do what I want with it... I'm not entirely sure I understand why it works though, why the simultaneous rests create the tie on the snares ? I'm too new to both lilypond and music so please forgive my naiveness. I would just need to figure out how to put all the rests in a variable too so that I would not have to have them explicitly typed so many times: Thank you so much for your response! Here is sort of how it would go: % for a DrumVoice A = \drummode { sn8 sn8 } B = \drummode { sn8. sn16 } C = \drummode { sn16 sn8. } \score { \new DrumStaff { \new DrumVoice { \time 2/4 { \A \A | s2 |\A \B | s2 |\A \C } { s8 s~ s s | s2 | s8 s~ s s | s2 | s8 s~ s s } } } \layout { } \midi { } } On Sep 27, 2013, at 1:39 AM, Jan-Peter Voigt wrote: Hello Alexander, the \drums command implicitly creates a new DrumStaff, so I recommend using \drummode for this purpose.

The best place to look is within emacs: with a .ly file loaded get help on the mode ( c-h m ). At least that will give you a list of the key-strokes that will do something LilyPond-ish. By far what I use the most is 'C-c C-l' to compile a LilyPond file and provide messages from the compilation in a buffer (in compilation mode) where I can then mouse-click to get to the position of failure. Typing 'C-c b' or a bar-check character ('|') also gives a beat count in the measure, if you hadn't noticed. Most of the other editing sugar I like is basic emacs : auto-fill'ing comments, auto-indenting code, multiple windows and buffers, syntax highlighting, etc. -glen On Tue, Aug 27, 2013 at 4:22 PM, Alexander Wallace a...@rwmotloc.com wrote: Hi all?
