Re: Adding lyrics to basic drum beat

[Noeck]

Hi Kevin,

is this something you like?

\version "2.18.2"

<<
  \new DrumStaff  <<
    \new DrumVoice = voice { \stemUp \drummode { hh4 hh hh hh }}
    \new DrumVoice { \stemDown \drummode { bd4 sn bd sn }}
  >>
  \new Lyrics \lyricsto voice { One Two Three Four }
>>

If the text does not follow a name voice (= voice in the example) using
\lyricsto, the syllables need duration like notes do.
I think addlyrics is a short-hand that only works with normal Staffs or at least
not with multiple voices:

Cheers,
