Greetings:
I've written a part in even eight notes, but I want to indicate in
the metronome marking that the rhythm of the even eighths should be
played with a swing rhythm, i.e. an eighth-note triplet with a quarter
note followed by an eighth. In a score the rhythm would be {\times 2/3
{c'4 c'8}}, and some jazz scores indicate that evenly notated eighths
should be played with this rhythmic figure.
The Metronome Marks section of the manual (8.2.2 for LP 2.8.4) shows
how to do what I want, but only for single notes and not at all for
triplets.
If I've made myself clear, does anyone know how to create the mark I
need ? In pseudo-LP code it's something like this:
{c'8 c'} = {\times 2/3 {c'4 c'8}}
Actually everything except the triplet bracket is in the manual:
8.2.2 Metronome marks
If there isn't a way to do the triplet bracket I would consider
cosponsoring this feature with you.
