can't output multiple midi drum voices

Whenever I have more than one DrumVoice going at a time neither one outputs anything at all. Sample code follows. You'd expect the first part to at least make some sound, but it doesn't do anything at all. My initial thought is that since there's only one percussion midi channel it breaks down

Metronome Marks above a StaffGroup

Hey everyone, On larger orchestral scores a metronome mark will appear at the top of each staff group (like strings, winds, brass, etc.) Is there a way to achieve this in Lilypond? I've tried removing Staff_collecting_engraver and Metronome_mark_engraver from the score and adding them to Staf

Re: Adding line breaks within lyrics

Thanks Kieren & James, This helped a lot. I actually found a lesser workaround later last night, but your solutions were way better. Continuing this conversation: I'm trying to now make a markup function, and running into trouble. Here's the function: --- #(define-markup-command (wrap-lyrics

Adding line breaks within lyrics

Hi everyone, I'm writing a piece where the rhythms of the sung words are free, so a whole phrase is attached to a single note. I'm putting my lyrics in " " for each note, but they appear on one long line, when I actually want them wrapped to the width of the bar. Is there a way to add a line br

Creating arbitrary lines (or other postscript things)

Dear users, I'm working on a piece of music where certain notes need to be connected by dotted lines. I've tried a few different things: using \glissando and overriding the stencil to get a different position, or just creating \markup with a stencil object. I've also tried writing it in postscr
