Ah, you want a dashed hairpin. Is this to notate a gradual opening/closing? I would not normally expect to see a dashed hairpin but rather simply a dashed line between the '+' and 'o'. This means gradual open/close. It seems that you want something like 'o > +' or '+ < o', correct? I suppose you could mark one note with '+' and another with 'o' and place your hairpin between. Again, however, as a trombonist I would find this notation non-standard and potentially confusing. I don't know enough about your notation requirements to understand why you would want or need to notate it this way.

I found out, that I can get a dashed hairpin with \once \override Hairpin #'style = #'dashed-line What I would like to do is getting a + and an "o" at the beginning and the end of the hairpin. The "o" is easy to get with \override Hairpin #'circled-tip = ##t But how I can do it with the "+"-sign? 2009/12/27 bobr...@centrum.is < bobr...@centrum.is > I'm not sure exactly how you want your wah-wah effect to appear, but for starters you can go here: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/the-feta-font#index-Feta-font ...to find the glyphs you need. The ones you need are listed under "Script glyphs." One is "stopped" (looks like '+') and the other is "flageolet" (looks like a small circle). There is also "open" which looks like a small letter 'o'. I've normally seen the little circle (I'm a trombonist). I don't know how to do this without experimenting with it but if you want '+O' I suppose you could create a script called 'wah' or something and combine them together side-by-side. This would mean 'wah' on a single note. If you wanted the effect to span two or more notes I think you should be able to put the '+' over one note, the 'o' over the other and put some sort of dotted/dashed spanner between them. Sorry I can't be more specific at the moment but I hope this is helpful, David ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stefan Thomas" < kontrapunktste...@googlemail.com > To: "lilypond-user" < lilypond-user@gnu.org > Sent: Sunday, December 27, 2009 5:51:19 AM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: Re: wah-wah-effect Dear community, I've created a little image (with another program) to illustrate what I'm thinking of. 2009/12/27 Stefan Thomas < kontrapunktste...@googlemail.com > Dear lilypond-users, does someone of You know, how to produce a proper notation for wah-wah effect for trumpet or trombone? _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
