I get different variations, depending on how I repeat the pattern. In LilyPond 2.19.45: % Down up down up: \score { \relative c'' { | a2 r8 a8 ( a ) b ~ | b2 r8 b8 ( a ) b ~ | b2 r8 b8 ( a ) b ~ | b2 r8 b8 ( a ) b ~ | b2 r2 } } % Down up up up \score { \relative c'' { | a2 r8 a8 ( a ) b ~ | b2 r8 b8 ( a ) b ~ | b2 r2 | b2 r8 b8 ( a ) b ~ | b2 r8 b8 ( a ) b ~ | b2 r2 } } % Up up down up \score { \relative c'' { | b2 r2 | a2 r8 a8 ( a ) b ~ | b2 r8 b8 ( a ) b ~ | b2 r2 | b2 r8 b8 ( a ) b ~ | b2 r8 b8 ( a ) b ~ | b2 r2 } } _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
