Have you tried using 'parallelogram instead of parallelogram? When parallelogram is defined as a music function, every time scheme sees parallelogram it tries to execute it. On the other hand, when it sees 'parallelogram is just puts the symbol (function name) rather than evaluating it. > Then I tried to figure out more about the standard settings which can be used > here, i.e. cross, diamond, xcircle, slash, etc. but everything I found out by > means of \displayMusic and (display)-scheme internally resulted that all those > definitions are lists if am not mistaken ( 'cross or (quote cross) is list, > isn't it?). 'cross is a scheme symbol, not a list. And (quote cross) is just another way to describe that symbol; 'cross is the same thing as (quote cross). I hope you found that the drum style table is in the file ly/drum-pitch-init.ly. The definitions is ly/drum-pitch-init.ly are a little bit confusing, because they're all quoted lists. That means there's a '( at the beginning of the list, so by default, nothing in the list is evaluated and you don't need to put a ' before the symbol names. That's also why the (ly:make-pitch ) calls in midiDrumPitches have a , before them; the , means "evaluate the following thing, even though it's in a quoted list." The other thing that is going to give you a little bit of grief is that the drum-style tables are hashes, not alists. In the init file, they're set up as alists, then converted to hashes by the map function at the end of the init file, which calls alist->hash-table (defined in scm/lily-library.scm. If you want to change a single entry, you'll have to do it with a call to hashq-set!. You can see how it's used in scm/lily-library.scm. k-v means key-value pair. So if you have a list you want to store like ('snare 'parallelogram #5 0), you'd do something like: (hashq-set! name-of-drum-table-goes-here 'snare '(parallelogram 5 0)) with name-of-drum-table-goes-here replaced with the scheme name of the drum table you're currently using, i.e. the name you used on the right hand side of drumStyleTable= ###.
