David,

I tried your snippet with a different meter and it gives some weird results. It seems to produce additional bars - I changed the bar after the compound meter to double bar so we can see the extraneous bars. And the notes are not placed properly. Am I doing something totally foolish here?

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

\version "2.18.2"

musicA = {

\compoundMeter #'((2 4) (4 4))

\relative c' {

c'2. d4 b2. c4 a2. b4 g2. a4 f2. g4

}

The problem is here: you need to change the durations of the spacer rests to reflect your measure divisions:

 patterning = {

  \repeat unfold 8 {

    \set Staff.completionUnit = #(ly:make-moment 2 4)

    s2 \bar "!"

    \set Staff.completionUnit = #(ly:make-moment 4 4)

    s1 \bar "||"

  }

}

Then it works just fine!
