Hi Uri,
I want to write 3 against 5. [...]
I will argue against most people and most notation manuals and most
modern scores that the only correct way to notate this is 3 eight-
notes
I often feel the same way -- depending on the situation, I often want
(e.g.) 2 half notes as a "tuplet" in a 3/4 bar, whereas the "correct"
way is to have 2 quarters...
Unfortunately no editor allows one to produce it, which is a very
disturbing fact.
Could lilypond be the one?
Naturally... =)
Maybe the following snippet will give you the hint(s) you need:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.11.49"
upper = \relative
{
c'4 c \times 4/3 { c4*1/2 c c }
c4 c \times 4/3 { c8 c c }
}
lower = \relative
{
c'4 c \times 4/5 { c8 c c c c}
c4 c \times 4/5 { c4*1/2 c c c c }
}
<<
\upper
\lower
>>
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Hope this helps!
Kieren.
