Instead of putting a single, double, or triple slash tremolo on a snare
drum note, how do you add the "z" as a roll?
\version "2.12.2"
\drums {
sn4 sn8 sn sn4 sn4:32
sn8 sn16 sn sn sn8 sn16 sn8 sn sn4
}
How would I add the "z" marking to the red snare example?
Greetings Matthew,
Here's how I create the Zs for my pieces.
ZRollsOn = \override TextScript #'extra-offset = #'(-0.5 . -4.5)
ZRollsOff = \revert TextScript #'extra-offset
Z = \markup { \bold "z" }
Then I just do something like this:
sn8 \ZRollsOn sn8-\Z sn8-\Z \ZRollsOff sn8
There are probably more accurate methods based on overriding the stem
stencil, but I'm not sure how to do that.
The extra-offset values will need to be shifted based on what sort of
scheme you're using for your staves. That extra-offset pair is great for
a single-line snare system with downward stems (leaving the area above
notes for sticking indications and articulations).
I have a full drumline template hiding around here somewhere I can
offer, if you're interested.
Cheers,
Bryan...
