5.17.4 Feathered beams

Feathered beams are not supported natively, but they can be faked by forcing two beams to overlap. Here is an example,

\new Staff <<
  \new Voice
  {
    \stemUp
    \once \override Voice.Beam #'positions = #'(0 . 0.5)
    c8[ c c c c ]
  }
  \new Voice {
    \stemUp
    \once \override Voice.Beam #'positions = #'(0 . -0.5)
    c[ c c c c]
  }
>>
