Re: addl. normal staff (ossia) in drummode or DrumStaff context

[Uwe Falke]

Hm, this works in my simple example. Thank you. However, it does not so for what I really want to do - sorry for having oversimplified. I just sent another example which is a snippet of the real score, employing two \DrumVoice contexts, and that might be the turning point: I read :

 "This context is a ‘bottom’ context; it cannot contain other contexts. "

Does this break my neck?

Dear lilypond people,


few patches of backing vocals, I'd attempted to add extra (normal) staffs at
those places, however, lilypond seems to refuse doing that.
Example:
\score {
  \new DrumStaff<<
      \drummode {
           bd4 sn bd bd4<<
              { bd  bd8 sn sn4 bd }
              \new Staff { c8 d8 e8 f8 g4 c4 }>>
      }>>
}

This produces an error like
t.ly:23:27: error: syntax error, unexpected STRING
              \new Staff {
                           c8 d8 e8 f8 g4 c4 }
t.ly:18:2: error: errors found, ignoring music expression


Is there a way to switch these contexts off locally?
Or is there anything else I could do to get this done ?

All good ideas or helping advices are welcome.

I have just started to use lilypond to set some drum scores. As I need to add a I suppose that either the \drummode or the \DrumStaff context do not allow this.

hi Uwe

no idea if an ossia with /normal notes/ is possible within a drum part.

maybe this is a workaround (which probably can or must be refined):

\score {
<<
      \new DrumStaff \drummode {
      bd4 sn bd bd4
      bd  bd8 sn sn4 bd
    }
    \new Staff \with {
          \remove Clef_engraver
          \remove Time_signature_engraver
        }
        \relative {
          \stopStaff s4*4
          \startStaff
          c8 d8 e8 f8 g4 c4
        }

}
