Re: Up and down arrows

> Is there a way to put up and down arrows above the staff to indicate the down and up beats?

c'4 ^\markup { ↓ } f'4 ^\markup { ↑ }

An if they should be put in one nicely justified line, one could use lyrics:

\version "2.19.44"

<<

  \new Lyrics = "beats"

  \new Staff \relative g' <<

    {

      g4 e g e f e d2

    }

    \new NullVoice = "counter" {

      \repeat unfold 30 \repeat unfold 4 c4

    }

  >>

  \context Lyrics = "beats" \lyricsto "counter" {

    \repeat unfold 30 { ↓ ↑ ↑ ↑ }

  }

>>

Best
