Lilypond is highly flexible and many drumnotes are predefined. But I

I tried :
--------------------------------------------
\version "2.18.2"
#(define mydrums '(
(bassdrum default #f -1)
(slap default #f 0)))
one = \drummode { bd slap }
\new DrumStaff
\with {
\override StaffSymbol #'line-count = #3
}
<<
\set DrumStaff.drumStyleTable = #(alist->hash-table mydrums)
\new DrumVoice { \voiceOne \one }
---------------------------------------------
But this results an error. althougth drumnote "slap" is defined it can
not be used.
It can once it has been input. The drumStyleTable tells LilyPond how to
typeset drum notes once they are in the music. It doesn't tell LilyPond
what drum notes are permitted in music. So you need to use the existing
names, or amend the parser.
Amending the parser is done with
drumPitchNames.slap = #'slap
Note that you can define multiple names for the same definition in the
drum style table, so you can also add
drumPitchNames.sl = #'slap
and this will work without further changes to mydrums.
Isn’t this the very latest 2.19.39 awesome alist syntax? Because the
snip above states \version "2.18.2".
Best, Simon
