Sorry for the late reply - been rather busy.

This is the LP that gives the error - I don't think I can cut it down any more.

I got round it by accident - changed quite a few details and it worked OK, but I'm not 100% sure exactly which combination of changes solved the problem. But I can't see what's wrong with what I've got.

The problem lies in removing the engraver for stems.  Unfortunately, I have no time to figure out why, but you might just use \omit to remove them from sight.  Notice that I commented out a number of extra lines:

 

\version "2.18.2"

%\include "lilypond-book-preamble.ly"

\language "english"

\layout {

  ragged-right  = ##t

}

myBar= { \bar "|" }

\score {

  %{

 \new Staff \with {

   \remove "Bar_number_engraver"

   \remove "Time_signature_engraver"

 }

 \new Voice \with {

   \remove "Stem_engraver"

 }

  %}

  \relative c {

    \key c \major

    \clef bass

    \set Timing.defaultBarType = ""

    << \new Voice 

     

       \with {

         %\remove "Stem_engraver"

         \omit Stem

       }

      

       {  

         \voiceOne

         d1^5 s \myBar c^4 s \myBar b^3}

       \new Voice 

      

       \with {

         %\remove "Stem_engraver"

         \omit Stem

       }

       { \voiceTwo 

         g4 a g a b a b a g a g a b a b a g a g a }

    >>

  }

}

%%%%%%%%%

Hope this helps,

David
