Hi List, I have a file with the following functions defined:
beambreakOn = { \set subdivideBeams = ##t \set baseMoment = #(ly:make-moment 1/8) \set beatStructure = #'(2 2 2 2) } beambreakOff = { \set subdivideBeams = ##f \set baseMoment = #(ly:make-moment 1/8) \set beatStructure = #'(2 2 2 2) } when invoked inside a music expression, they set all beams greater than the 8th (that is, past the first) to break at the 8th note. This allows, for example, the following expression (pseudo-code): { a32 b c d e f g16 } to split neatly at the midpoint, clarifying the metric structure. The problem is, later on in the piece I have the following command: \compoundMeter #'((3 4 16)) and a measure with the contents (pseudo-code): { < f a c >8 < d fis a >16 < f a c > < g b d >8\fermata < d fis a >16 } theoretically, this should automatically divide thus: { < f a c >8[ < d fis a >16] < f a c >[ < g b d >8\fermata < d fis a >16] } but instead it divides: { < f a c >8[ < d fis a >16 < f a c >] < g b d >8\fermata[ < d fis a >16] } Here's the whole thing in a MWE: --------------------------------- \version "2.19.80" beambreakOn = { \set subdivideBeams = ##t \set baseMoment = #(ly:make-moment 1/8) \set beatStructure = #'(2 2 2 2) } beambreakOff = { \set subdivideBeams = ##f \set baseMoment = #(ly:make-moment 1/8) \set beatStructure = #'(2 2 2 2) } \relative c' { \time 4/8 %1 \beambreakOn a32\( b cis dis eis8\) a,32\( b cis dis eis16\)\fermata < a, cis e >32 < a cis e > \beambreakOff | %2 \compoundMeter #'((4 3 16)) < f' a c >8 < d fis a >16 < f a c > < g b d >8\fermata < d fis a >16 | %3 \time 4/8 \beambreakOn a32\( b cis dis eis8\) a,32\( b cis dis eis16\)\fermata < a, cis e >32 < a cis e > \beambreakOff } --------------------------------- Is there a command I can insert after the first measure to allow the \compoundMeter command to reset beam divisions as intended? Cheers, A
