Hi Stefan,
as far as I can see, the drum beats are exactly aligned to the time in the piano staffs below - the second drum beat is aligned to 3/4, like the rests in the piano staff below.
If you separate drum and piano staffs in separate scores, the alignment will be independent from each other.
Or you could contract the first 1/4 and 1/8 rests in the piano staff into a dotted quarter rest which would save some space on the piano staffs - doesn't look very good though.
Also, the spacing might get better if you got rid of the accidentals by supplying a correct key.

Dear community, is it possible to get a better horizontal spacing in the below quoted snippet? In my opinion the distance between the 1st and the 2nd drum beat is too large. \version "2.16.0" \paper { ragged-right = ##t } percussion = \drummode { \time 5/4 r4 toml4 tomml tomh r4 \time 6/4 tomml toml r4 r2 r4 } right = { \clef bass r4 r8 <f gis b d' e'>8-. r2 r4 R1. } left = { \clef bass r4 r8 <fis, cis dis>8-. r2 r4 R1. } \score { << \new DrumStaff \percussion \new PianoStaff << \new Staff \right \new Staff \left >> >> } _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
