Hi,

I am kind of intrigued by this drummers gigsaw... seems to be some
kind of drum beat library?
But after that I am totally at loss, can you or someone explain how
this can be used. Is it strictly for arranging with lilypond? Is it
for arranging?

Regards,
Robert

>
> In this book all bars are formated in 5/4 but only completed with rests.
> Therefore at the end of each bar there are two r8 (= a quarter note).
> Don't forget that you must write sounds with eighth notes in the
> "Gigsaw". If that's been established all combinations are possible:
>
> Move and replace whatever place you want into the bar a single r8 (or
> its subdivisions). (In the included MY-SONG see example
> 5/4-VIRTUAL-ROCK-BASE mes8)
>
> Paying more attention in case of triplets that's the reason why I
> haven't changed 8th rests in the following examples:
>
> - Either you move a WHOLE triplet on one another beat. (see example
> 5/4-VIRTUAL-ROCK-BASE mes5 (transformée 1)
>
> - or you insert three 8th rests inside one another triplet and delete
> the empty \\times { }  so that you only get a triplet with six 8th
> notes. (see example 5/4-VIRTUAL-ROCK-BASE mes5 (transformée 2)
>
> - or you only get a triplet with nine 8th notes. (see example
> 5/4-VIRTUAL-ROCK-BASE mes5 (transformée 3)
>
> - or you only get a single triplet with twelve 8th notes. (see example
> 5/4-VIRTUAL-ROCK-BASE mes5 (transformée 4 et 5)
>
> - or finally you change the time signature (5/4 becomes 15/8) and you
> delete all \\times { }. Doing that you create materials for all kind of
> transformations. (see example 5/4-VIRTUAL-ROCK-BASE mes5 (transformée en
> 15/8). To find the previous tempo of 8th in triplet again notice the
> change of tempo 4 = 165 (110 + a half: 55)
