multimeasure rests

2012-01-04 Thread Stefan Thomas

Some drum notation questions

2012-01-04 Thread Vaylor Trucks
I have been using lilypond for years for my own projects and have recently introduced it to a friend of mine. He is a drum instructor and has been reading drum notation for many years. He's pointed out some things that are non-standard about the way lilypond handles some drum notation tasks. Mos
