Re: Subdividing beams

[Renato Biolcati Rinaldi]

This is a great solution! Thanks a lot, I was fixated with \set baseMoment and beatStructure things that I completely missed other solutions.

When you don't manage to make LilyPond understand what beaming you
want, there is an escape hatch you can use to set beams manually.

\version "2.25.0"
\language "english"

\relative c' {
   \time 12/8
   \key bf \major

   r8
   <<
     {
       \override DynamicTextSpanner.style = #'none
       fs'16^3\cresc (a g8) bf,\rest g'16^3 (bf a8) bf,\rest
       \set subdivideBeams = ##t
       a16^3\f [(bf) bf^3 (c)]
     }
     \\
     {
       c,8 bf s bf c s c d
     }
   >>

   \set subdivideBeams = ##t
   \set baseMoment = #(ly:make-moment 1/8)
   \set beatStructure = 2,2,2,2

   <ef'!^1 c'^5>32 [(bf'^3 a
   \set stemRightBeamCount = 2
   g
   \set stemLeftBeamCount = 2
   fs^4 ef d
   \set stemRightBeamCount = 2
   c
   \set stemLeftBeamCount = 2
   bf^2 a bf c)] |
}
