That are the interesting cases where to outsmart the optimised depiction
of lilypond. Usually not an easy task!
First thee is an error, as
d8 d4. a16 c8. |
does not sum up to 2/4. Nay be that line should read
| e8 g a g | e c4. | d8 d4. | a8 c4.
??
Beside any solution (I do not have any ready) there is some basic math
fr clarification needed. You have
\time 2/4 and \time 6/8. A common time for to give an equal length of
complete bars/measures is 12/8 or a multiple of.
2/4 = 4/8, into 12/8 you can get 3 of. And for 6/8 you can get two of.
Hopefully you might get equal length?
In the fist motive you have 8 bars 6/8, makes 48 eighths and an eight
partial. In the second motive you have 9 bars (if my assumption is
correct) of 2/4, makes 18/4 or 36 eighths. So, the problem of different
lengths is obvious by simple math.
There the question arises, how 48 and 36 eighths should line up? Do you
simply want equal length, or should the line with 36 eighths be shorter
than that with 48 to show the time difference ...??

Hi all,
I'm new to Lilypond, and I appear to have chosen a fiendishly difficult
task
for my first score. It's an example for an academic paper written in
LaTeX
with lilypond-book. I'm trying to input this scanned music snippet
<http://i.imgur.com/npBqY1V.jpg> - a comparison of two Hungarian folk
songs
- into Lilypond to have it properly typeset. The problem is that the
notes
in the two songs need to line up with each other, but the time
signatures
and rhythms are completely different.
I have managed to make the time signatures for each song independent,
but
I'm having problems making the notes line up (and with stopping the
music
from running off the page). I've dumped my current code at PasteBin
<http://pastebin.com/Z6kmy6yt> if you want to inspect it (it's not very
long).
This code produces output that looks like this.
<http://i.imgur.com/ITCV26K.jpg> I have tried to investigate ways of
making
the notes line up, but a journey into the depths of the learning
manual,
notation reference and internals reference has left me a little
cross-eyed.
Could anyone give me some pointers on the best way to proceed?
Best,
Jack Taylor
