Re: elegant compound time signatures

Hi, Does somebody knows if compound times works with time signatures on top ? I tried several tweaks, but they doesn't seem to work in this type of time signatures (for example, they remain 5/4, instead of 2/4 + 3/4, and so on). Any sugestion? Regards B

2 muisc + tablature in 2 staves

Dear LilyPond'ers, I'm quite new to this tool and am trying to create sheet muisc for blues guitar. I've been trying to use tuxguitar as the input tool and that works pretty well except for one issue: It cannot seem to print the chord names over the music (upper) staff. My music should look like

Re: 2 muisc + tablature in 2 staves

You might prefer to use FretBoards context in between the ChordNames and the Staff. That way you will have the fret diagrams taken directly from your chord choices rather than having to enter the same information twice. mychords = \chordmode { your chords } << \new ChordNames { \mychords }

Hi! Thanks for those tips! I'm making great progress now, after having fought with both lilypond and tuxgutar for days! Now I can see the chord names, the musics and the tab! I didn't use the FretBoards because I couldn't see how to choose the chord variant? My next question, is how to reduce t

Re: 2 muisc + tablature in 2 staves

There are some examples scattered throughout the documentation. However, there is not a single complete description. In any case, you can define alternative chord shapes with this sort of syntax: \addChordShape #'csevsmall #"x;3-3;2-2;3-4;1-1;o;" You can then apply those to a specific chord

Thanks for that bit! I'm sorry if I'm asking so many noobie questions, but my question is not so much about the chords, but about the notes. In the example below, you see that I have to type the same notes in both staves, i.e. c2 c2 g'4 g4 g4 g4 d1. I'm trying to find a way of replacing that by a
