Hi Edward,

it’s somewhat difficult to help without code example. You write about a 
drum staff, but the image has a normal staff.
Anyway: If both the voices contain the dynamics, they are of course 
going to be printed twice. Normally, they’d be printed on opposite sides 
of the staff, though – perhaps you used \stemUp and \stemDown to 
differentiate the voices, instead of the more appropriate \voiceOne and 
\voiceTwo?

Best, Simon
