Hi Everyone,
I'm working on some Turkish usul percussion notation and the standard is, rather oddly, to have the low pitched "dum" sound on the top line and highest pitch "tek" sound on the low. See the snippet below.
Problem that I can't solve: stem direction needs to be the reverse of what it is showing. Top line needs to point up, bottom line needs to point down. Without adding \stemUp or \stemDown , could anyone help me and my lack of coding skills?
btw have a look at a couple simple rhythms in turkish music here:
Thank you very much in advance.
Adam
