I thought that might be the case. :) I originally wrote a completely
different reply, but doubts crept in when I re-read your original
post.

Now I understand exactly what you're after, I'll point you in the
direction of section 3.2.2 "Explicitly instantiating voices" (Learning
manual), which should give you an idea why you shouldn't be using the
shorthand polyphonic notation ( << { } \\ { } >> ) in this situation.
