Percussion Snippet

[Martin Bergande]

Hallo,

is there a standard solution to improve the following snippet from
the docs?

% cut & pasted from LilyPond — Notation Reference for version 2.14.2

#(define mydrums '((hiwoodblock default #t  3)
                   (lowoodblock default #t -2)))

woodstaff = {
  % This defines a staff with only two lines.
  % It also defines the positions of the two lines.
  \override Staff.StaffSymbol #'line-positions = #'(-2 3)

  % This is necessary; if not entered, the barline would be too short!
  \override Staff.BarLine #'bar-extent = #'(-1.5 . 1.5)
}

\new DrumStaff {
  \set DrumStaff.drumStyleTable = #(alist->hash-table mydrums)

  % with this you load your new drum style table
  \woodstaff

  \drummode {
    \time 2/4
    wbl8 wbl16 wbl wbh8-> wbl |
    wbl8 wbl16 wbh-> ~ wbh wbl16 r8 |
  }
}
