I would like to change from one instrument to another without starting a new staff. I have an example which starts with cymbal, (percussion staff with a single ledger line) goes to Glockenspiel (treble clef full staff), then back to cymbal and then bongos. The problem is when I go from treble clef back to percussion I am using \drums{ and this starts a new stave. If I don't use \drums{ then I can't seem to set the drumStyleTable to put the notes on the correct lines. I can't really find any examples in the documentation for switching styles mid-stave.
Hello, Have a look at the OneStaff example in NR 1.6.1. https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.25/Documentation/notation/grouping-staves Kind regards, Xavier
