I'm struggling with a piece of polymetric notation. I have a piece in 9/8 but halfway through some staves need to change to 3/4.

I have this:

 \set Staff.timeSignatureFraction = #'(3 . 4)
 \scaleDurations #'(3 . 2)

but I can't figure out what fraction it needs to make it work.

The cue word ‘polymetric’ made me move Timing_translator to Staff level (actually it works without). Surprisingly, this gives wrong bar lines (see attached). Anyone know why?

Best, Simon
\version "2.19.37"
\layout {
  \context {
    \Score
    \remove Timing_translator
  }
  \context {
    \Staff
    \consists Timing_translator
  }
}

  \new Staff {
    \time 9/8
    s4.*6
  }
  \new Staff {
    \time 9/8
    4. 4. 4.
    \set Staff.timeSignatureFraction = 3/4
    \scaleDurations 3/2 { 4 4 4 }
  }
