Hi Kale,
Please reply to the list and not directly to the previous poster.
Also, these snippets are good, but they should also be complete - we
should be able to render it without error.
As a general comment, all your questions are plainly addressed in the
docs and archives. The docs are big, but once you learn your way
around they will be your best friend.
4 sixteenth notes are typically joined with one beam when place on a
single staff. I would like to have 2 sixteenth notes on one staff
joined to two sixteenth notes on another staff with a single beam. In
the example below, how would I have all notes joined by a single
beam?

notation-for-keyboards#Common-notation-for-keyboards
How can I place additional space between a barline and the note
immediately following it? Preferably this would effect the entire
score rather than a single instance (although its a short song, so it
is not a problem)
Search for "barline note space" on the list archives and you'll find
lots of help.

Also, a new question. Neither of these text spanners are rendering,
but I'm also not getting any error messages out of them.
I'm not sure about this one... we need complete snippets.
\cadenzaOn
\override TextSpanner #'(bound-details left text) =
\markup { \upright "continue at liberty, lacking a marked
pulse" }
\times 2/3
{ cs,8\startTextSpan gs' ds' }
s1 s s s\stopTextSpan
also:
\override TextSpanner #'(bound-details left text) =
\markup { \upright "3''" }
s2\startTextSpan
\bar "|"
gs8\stopTextSpan
Hope that helps a little!
