But please bear with me on this for a second. If the durations command already spaces them out then why doesn't this work *every* time? I understand both commands are independent yes thank you. But I presumed that I needed durations to space out the notes correctly like Gould and publishing houses all over do. Why would I need a custom function to do what featherdurations does if I'm misunderrstanding? I wouldn't even know how to make this function besides.
