Hello I am trying to use \parallelMusic with some success. My only problem is that at a specific point in the music, the composer decided to add a new temporary voice.
I was trying to use something like: \parallelMusic #'(upperA upperB) { % line 1 - 1 \partial 4 b4\( | \partial 4 b4~ | % line 1 - 2 e4. b8 gis'4 e | b1 | [...] gis2 ~ gis8\) cis,8\( dis[ e] | cis2 ~ cis8 cis b4 | % line 2 - 4 a4. a8 gis4 fis | << { e2 ~ e8[ dis] cis[ dis] } \\ { cis8[ b] cis4 s2 }>> | % line 3 - 1 \partial 8*5 e2 ~ e8 \fermata\) | \partial 8*5 b2 ~ b8 | } The problem here is that << {} \\ {} >> part. Lilypond is complaining and rendering some strange things. The error messages: piano+voz.ly:62:13: warning: adding note head to incompatible stem (type = 4) << { e2 ~ e8[ dis] cis[ dis] } \\ { cis8[ b] cis4 s2 }>> | piano+voz.ly:62:13: warning: maybe input should specify polyphonic voices << { e2 ~ e8[ dis] cis[ dis] } \\ { cis8[ b] cis4 s2 }>> | [8] piano+voz.ly:62:18: warning: adding note head to incompatible stem (type = 4) << { e2 ~ e8[ dis] cis[ dis] } \\ { cis8[ b] cis4 s2 }>> | piano+voz.ly:62:18: warning: maybe input should specify polyphonic voices << { e2 ~ e8[ dis] cis[ dis] } \\ { cis8[ b] cis4 s2 }>> | piano+voz.ly:61:15: warning: stem does not fit in beam a4. a8 gis4 fis | piano+voz.ly:62:20: warning: beam was started here << { e2 ~ e8 [ dis] cis[ dis] } \\ { cis8[ b] cis4 s2 }>> | piano+voz.ly:62:27: warning: adding note head to incompatible stem (type = 4) << { e2 ~ e8[ dis] cis[ dis] } \\ { cis8[ b] cis4 s2 }>> | piano+voz.ly:62:27: warning: maybe input should specify polyphonic voices << { e2 ~ e8[ dis] cis[ dis] } \\ { cis8[ b] cis4 s2 }>> | piano+voz.ly:61:20: warning: stem does not fit in beam a4. a8 gis4 fis | piano+voz.ly:62:30: warning: beam was started here << { e2 ~ e8[ dis] cis [ dis] } \\ { cis8[ b] cis4 s2 }>> | piano+voz.ly:61:62: warning: barcheck failed at: -5/8 a4. a8 gis4 fis | piano+voz.ly:62:66: warning: barcheck failed at: -5/8 << { e2 ~ e8[ dis] cis[ dis] } \\ { cis8[ b] cis4 s2 }>> | Preprocessing graphical objects...
