> Does this workaround/hack suit your needs? Hi Kieren,
unfortunately not, because the "music" voice should behave like a \oneVoice. But the following works for me: \new Staff << { \oneVoice \music } \\ { \voiceThree \shiftOff \upper } >> Why did you use \voices 1,2 in your example? And I’d like to understand why it does not work without the \\. I thought that this was just a shorthand for \voiceOne and …Two respectively. Thank you! Best, Joram
