Yes, that's also good to know. However the beams aren't damped all the way, i.e. they are still a little slanted, even if I use a really big number for the damping parameter.And since I also wanted the beams at the same position, I went for this:     \override Beam #'positions = #'(-5 . -5)    \ove

I am creating a context for pipe band snare drum that builds on RhythmicStaff, but allows for two pitches to indicate left or right hand. This uses note heads on either side of the single staff line. I think that it would work better if I could get all beams aligned and non-slanted, i.e. {left8[ ri
