With the hopefully-2.17.11 syntax this would be { \time 6/8 \tuplet 4/6 4. { e16 fis g gis a ais b b } } Now this still is mathematics. It seems closer to the kind of mathematics you'd use in music. Though I am not sure I'd not prefer { \time 6/8 \tuplet 2/3 4. { e16[ fis] g[ gis] a[ ais] b[ b] } } instead, but admittedly, that has a slightly different accent structure. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
