Forwarding to list, which I apparently didn't do before. Carl

Here's my code: \version "2.19.80" beambreakOn = { \set subdivideBeams = ##t \set baseMoment = #(ly:make-moment 1/8) \set beatStructure = #'(2 2 2 2) } beambreakOff = { \set subdivideBeams = ##f \set baseMoment = #(ly:make-moment 1/8) \set beatStructure = #'(2 2 2 2) } compoundBeaming = { \set subdivideBeams = ##f \set baseMoment = #(ly:make-moment 1/16) \set beatStructure=#'(4 3) } \relative c' { \time 4/8 %1 \beambreakOn a32\( b cis dis eis8\) a,32\( b cis dis eis16\)\fermata <a, cis e >32 < a cis e > \beambreakOff | %2 %\time 7/16 \compoundMeter #'((4 3 16)) \compoundBeaming < f' a c >8 < d fis a >16 < f a c > < g b d >8\fermata < d fis a >16 | %3 \time 4/8 \beambreakOn a32\( b cis dis eis8\) a,32\( b cis dis eis16\)\fermata <a, cis e >32 < a cis e > \beambreakOff } The beat pattern is not set automatically, but the beaming is handled automatically once the beat patter in set, at least as far as I can see.
