You can use \set Timing.beatLength = #(ly:make-moment 3 8) but then you will get a funny looking result if you have the rhythm c8 c16 c16 c8 for example. I'm actually not convinced that LilyPond does what it should in these situations. There is a property subDivideBeams which seems to work in s

Leadsheet-template - 4 voices...

Hello all! After your last help (to my emails "Template for a leadsheet (vocal, chords, lyrics, several verses)") I moved several steps forward - great! Because results were so satisfying I expanded my objectives. ;-) Adding a second voice was (thanks to the great manual/website) no problem.

piano centered dynamics colliding with barline
