Hi Tobin, this is definitely a valid question for this list! This snippet will help you, I guess: http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=743 However the additional 1/3 is the length of a triplet half note: 1/3 = 1/2 * 2/3 \version "2.19.36" \relative c' { \compoundMeter #'((4 4) (1 3)) a4 a a a \tuplet 3/2 { a2 | a a } } For a 4/4 measure plus a triplet 8th note, you would need 1/12 if I am not mistaken: \relative c' { \compoundMeter #'((4 4) (1 12)) a4 a a a \tuplet 3/2 { a8 | a a } } HTH, Joram _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
