maybe this construct can help (use 64th if the grouping is not clear):

\context Staff <<
  \override Staff.NoteColumn #'ignore-collision = ##t
  \new Voice \relative c'' { 
    \autoBeamOff 
    c16 c c c
    c16 c c c
    c16 c c c
    c16 c c c
  }
  \new Voice \relative c {
    \autoBeamOff
    \hideNotes
    \repeat unfold 4 {
      c16 c c c32 c
    }    
  }
