My guess is that drum notation was implemented by Han-Wen and Jan like
most of LilyPond, but I believe this particular area was also
something Rune Zedeler worked on, in 2002 or so. Rune is now deceased,
but I thought someone had to mention him here...

Cheers,
Valentin

Percussion in Lilypond

2008-10-08 Thread Jonathan Kulp
Just a note to say "thanks" to whoever implemented \drummode and wrote 
the docs for percussion.  I finally got around to checking this out 
today and I should have done it ages ago.  In my orchestral piece I'd 
been using normal mode in the percussion parts and having to do all 
sorts of overrides to get what I wanted when I could have used drummode 
and simplified everything.  Better late than never I guess :)

Hello.

> Any examples would be much appreciated.

Here is some of what you can put in a ".ly" file in order
to produce a drum staff.

%--BEGIN-
\include "drumpitch-init.ly"

#(define mydrums '(
   (hihat   cross   #f 4)
   (snare   ()  #f 1)
   (bassdrum()  #f -5)
   (lowtom  ()  #f -1)
   (himidtom()   #f2)
   (ridecymbal  cross   #f 5)
   (crashcymbal cross   #f 6)))

\score {
\new DrumStaff {

  \set DrumStaff.drumStyleTable = #(alist->hash-table mydrums)

  <<
  \new DrumVoice { \voiceOne \drums { hh8 hh hh hh hh hh hh cymc | } }
  \new DrumVoice { \voiceTwo \drums { bd8 bd  bd bd bd  
bd | } }
  >>

  \bar "||"
}

\midi {}
\paper {}
}
%--END-


Best regards,
Gilles

Hi Vincent!
Nothing fancy like multiple staves or anything like that, just example 
code of one small, stupid drum...
You didn't give us your liylpond version, so I can't exactly say, 
whether the example below will work for you. At least it does for 
version 2.4.2.

up   = \drummode { hh4  hh  }
down = \drummode { bd4 s bd s }
drumContents = {
   <<
   \new DrumVoice { \voiceOne \up }
   \new DrumVoice { \voiceTwo \down }
   >>
}
\score {
   \new DrumStaff { \drumContents }
   \midi {\tempo 4=120}
}
Kind regards,
Thies Albrecht

percussion in lilypond

2004-11-28 Thread Vincent Penesich



Hi all,
 
I really need some help with the percussion in 
lilypond. I've been trying to get a simple drum going, but I've reached zero 
result. Could anyone give me a _really_ simple example of a drum, something I 
can actually compile? I just need a bassdrum, hi hat and caisse, nothing more. 
Nothing fancy like multiple staves or anything like that, just example code of 
one small, stupid drum.
It should all be as simple as something like 
this:
 
\score{\notes{ c,8 e,2 e,4 e,8  } \midi { 
\tempo 4=72 }  }
that's the thing I'm looking for, but then using 
drums.
Any examples would be much 
appreciated.
 
Tnx in advance,
 
Vincent.
