Re: Note tails to be written both up and down

[Emre PINARBAŞI]

I did, but in the lyrics, the syllable "Heek" started shifting to note when it should have come under the note I just made. How can I deal with this problem?

\new RhythmicStaff {
{ \numericTimeSignature
  \time 12/8
  \set Timing.beatStructure = #'(2 1 1 2 2 2 1 1)
  4 8 \override Stem.direction = #DOWN 8 \override Stem.direction = #UP 4 \override Stem.direction = #DOWN 4  \override Stem.direction = #UP << 4 \\ 4 >> \override Stem.direction = #UP 8 \override Stem.direction = #DOWN 8 \bar "|."
}
\addlyrics {Düüm Te Ke Düüm Tâ Heek Te Ke}
}

Do you mean like this: 
%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.20.0"
\new RhythmicStaff {
 << { 8 } \\  { 8 } >>
}
%%%%%%%%%%%

If so, to the program it is two eights in different voices, you can read more about it here:
https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.20/Documentation/learning/i_0027m-hearing-voices

If you want the whole part or a longer stretch to be written like that you could just write it in a single variable and give the same to both voices.

If you’re writing two percussion instruments on the same staff you might want to write them separately and combine them with \partcombine
