Subject: default stem directions
I am trying to learn how to change the default stem directions.
I assume it has something to do with ly:stem::calc-default-direction,
but I have no idea where to go from there.
I would like an output that looks like this:

\version "2.19.83"
\score {
   \new Staff
    \with { \override StaffSymbol.line-count =  #1 }
    {
      \clef percussion
      \numericTimeSignature
      \autoBeamOff
    \relative c' {
         \stemDown b8 \stemUp c4 c8
         \stemDown b8[ b] b \stemUp c
      }
    }
}

...without having to do all the \stemUp \stemDown stuff.
I'm ok with the manual beaming.

Thanks,
Rick


You can combine two voices 
and use spacers instead of rests

\version "2.19.81"

stemUpNotes = \relative c' {
   s8 c4 c8
   s8 s s c8
}
stemDownNotes = \relative c' {
   b8 s4 s8
   b8[ b] b s
}

\score {
   \new Staff
    \with { \override StaffSymbol.line-count =  #1 }
    {
      \clef percussion
      \numericTimeSignature
      \autoBeamOff
      << \stemUpNotes \\ \stemDownNotes >>
    }
}
