Hello,
I have a staff for a cello where the player should reduce the tone during the note quite fast. Therfore the normal haiping like this is too long:
\version "2.18.0"
cello = \relative c' {
\time 6/8
\key a\major
\clef tenor
fis2.~\downbow\p\> %%% this is the hairpin line
|
fis4.\! r8 r4
}
harp = \relative c' {
\time 6/8
\key a\major
r16 e e e e e
r16 e e e e e
}
\score {
<<
\new Staff \cello
\new Staff \harp
>>
}
I have somehow written something that looks nearly like what I want to achive
cello = \relative c' {
<<
{ s8\p\> s\! } \\
{ fis'2.^~^\downbow | fis4. }
>>
r8 r4
}
But this is ugly to code and not perfect to read.
- The tie sarts at a different point.
- The dots are a line too low.
- The piano is a bit too left.
How can I code this more elegant and avoid the changes?
Best regards
Helge
