Re: implicit tuplets

[Malte Meyn]

Explicit triplets can be set with a single \tuplet command like Urs 
suggested. And implicit triplets can be made by scaling the durations:

\version "2.19.13"

\relative c' {
        \time 2/4

        % you might want this, try it
        % (1 . 24) is the duration of a 1/16-triplet ;)
        \set Timing.beamExceptions = #'((end . (((1 . 24) . (3 3 3)))))

        % explicite triplets
        \tuplet 3/2 8 { c16 d e c d e c d e c d e } |

        % implicite triplets
        c16*2/3 d e c d e c d e c d e |

        % other beams don’t change
        c16 d e f g f e d |
        c8 d e d |
        c2
}

I think that’s what you mean by “implicit triplets”, isn’t it?
