Posicionar los silencios multicompás
A diferencia de los silencios normales, no existe una instrucción predefinida para modificar la posición predeterminada de un símbolo de silencio multicompás sobre el pentagrama, adjuntándolo a una nota, independientemente de cuál sea su forma. Sin embargo, en la música polifónica los silencios multicompás de las voces de numeración par e impar están separados verticalmente. La colocación de los silencios multicompás se puede controlar como se ve a continuación:
\relative c'' { % Multi-measure rests by default are set under the fourth line R1 % They can be moved using an override \override MultiMeasureRest.staff-position = -2 R1 \override MultiMeasureRest.staff-position = 0 R1 \override MultiMeasureRest.staff-position = 2 R1 \override MultiMeasureRest.staff-position = 3 R1 \override MultiMeasureRest.staff-position = 6 R1 \revert MultiMeasureRest.staff-position \break % In two Voices, odd-numbered voices are under the top line << { R1 } \\ { a1 } >> % Even-numbered voices are under the bottom line << { a1 } \\ { R1 } >> % Multi-measure rests in both voices remain separate << { R1 } \\ { R1 } >> % Separating multi-measure rests in more than two voices % requires an override << { R1 } \\ { R1 } \\ \once \override MultiMeasureRest.staff-position = 0 { R1 } >> % Using compressed bars in multiple voices requires another override % in all voices to avoid multiple instances being printed \compressMMRests << \revert MultiMeasureRest.direction { R1*3 } \\ \revert MultiMeasureRest.direction { R1*3 } >> }
