Hello list, Maybe I want too much for a beginner. Not easy, all this stuff, although I am an experienced programmer in other languages.
I want to add Lyrics to a DrummStaff or (even better) a RhythmicStaff. See example below. In order to have - a single line with a rythm, to be associated with lyrics, - below that a single line with two times text associated with the rythm of the first line (above and below) - and another rythm on the third line (this last one is ok now). when I enter \context Voice = "one" (for the lyrics to catch), 5 lines appear again. Three other questions at this point: 1. how can I (preferably in RhytmicMode) shift up or down the notes, so they are a little above or below the staff line? And how can I remove the stems in the bottom voice? 2. How can I control the vertical spacing of this all? 3. Is there any chance I can typeset music vertical (from bottom to top!) Thanks, Quintijn %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % this was the start from Mats: \version "2.4.3" drumPitchNames = #'( (T . tenor) (B . bass) (S . slap) (D . demislap) (KO . kenkeniopen) (KC . kenkeniclosed) ) #(define mydrums '( (tenor default #f 0) (bass default #f 1) (slap default #f 1) (demislap cross #f 2) (kenkeniopen default #f -1) (kenkeniclosed cross #f -1) )) \layout{ \context{ \Score drumStyleTable = #(alist->hash-table mydrums) } } %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%the parts of rumba djembe = \drummode { \time 12/8 \autoBeamOff \stemUp B4.
