Hi Helge,

althought I can't help you with your main problem, I would like to make one syntactical thing clear for you. The number N in the command \repeat tremolo N {} doesn't indicate the number of different notes but the number of repetitions
So if you have
    \repeat tremolo 2 { b8. c' }
this will result in a musical construct spanning 2 x (8. + 8.), i.e. 3/4 in total - or one whole bar in your example -
whereas
    \repeat tremolo 3 { b8. c' d }
- if it were valid input - would result in a tremolo spanning 3 x (8.+8.+8.), i.e. 6/4+3/16

You may try
\score {
   \new Staff {
    \repeat tremolo 2 { b16 c' }
    \repeat tremolo 3 { b16 c' }
    \repeat tremolo 3 { b16 c' }
    \repeat tremolo 4 { b16 c' } r2
    \repeat tremolo 6 { b16 c' } r4
  }
}

to see what I mean.

Hello,

I need to write a piece with a tremolo like fast repetition. But since there are three notes in this repetition, the
  \repeat tremolo n { x y }
doesn't work. How can I achieve such notation?

Minimal example:

\score {
   \new Staff {
    \time 3/4
    \repeat tremolo 2 { b8. c' }
    \repeat tremolo 3 { b8. c' d }
  }
}


Regards,
Helge
