Kevin,

Voices 1, 3, etc. (odd numbered) point stems up. Voices 2, 4, etc. (even numbered) point stems down. So, if you want the quarter notes stemmed up and the half notes stemmed down, switch their order in the brackets, like 

<<{r4 <a c e> r <a c e> }\\{c2 e}>>

HTH,
Abraham

Hi all/Claudio.

I've put this code into Lilypond...

\header {

    subtitle = "With pick or fingers"

The bass note stem direction is up and the rests are printed below the
half notes. The quarter note stems go downward. Can the stem direction
be defined per Voice and then would perhaps the rests be printed on the
staff? Voice one stems down and voice 2 upward????  As it is it is not
very readable.

Namaste,
Kevin Tough
