Previous: Custom percussion staves, Up: Common notation for percussion
Ghost notes for drums and percussion may be created using the
\parenthesize command detailed in Parentheses.
However, the default \drummode does not include the
Parenthesis_engraver plugin which allows this.
\new DrumStaff \with {
\consists "Parenthesis_engraver"
} <<
\context DrumVoice = "1" { s1 *2 }
\context DrumVoice = "2" { s1 *2 }
\drummode {
<<
{
hh8[ hh] <hh sn> hh16
< \parenthesize sn > hh
< \parenthesize sn > hh8 <hh sn> hh
} \\ {
bd4 r4 bd8 bd r8 bd
}
>>
}
>>
Also note that you must add chords (< > brackets)
around each \parenthesize statement.
