Why would this be so? Lilypond does not have issues autobeaming { s16 16 16 16} for example. And using a convenience function only for entering the music the autoBeamSkips option produces the correct output simply from the code: \layout { \context { \Voice \accepts "Notes" } \context { \name "Notes" \type "Engraver_group" } } alternateVoices = #(define-music-function (d music) (ly:duration? ly:music?) (let* ((mdur (ly:music-length music)) (mdur (moment->fraction mdur)) (mdur (/ (car mdur) (cdr mdur))) (ddur (duration-length d)) (times (/ mdur ddur 2))) (display times) #{ << \new Voice = "v1" { \voiceOne #(skip-of-length music) } \new Voice = "v2" { \voiceTwo #(skip-of-length music) } \new Notes { << \repeat unfold #times { <>\change Voice = "v1" s$d <>\change Voice = "v2" s$d } #music >> } >> #})) \new Staff \relative { \set Staff.autoBeamSkips = ##t \set Staff.beamExceptions = \beamExceptions { 16[ 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16] } \time 3/4 \alternateVoices 16 { fis''16 d d d cis d d d e d cis d | d d fis d e d fis d g d e d | fis d d d cis d d d e d cis d | } } Cheers, Valentin
