To place tremolo marks between notes, use \repeat
with tremolo
style
\new Voice \relative c' { \repeat "tremolo" 8 { c16 d16 } \repeat "tremolo" 4 { c16 d16 } \repeat "tremolo" 2 { c16 d16 } }
Tremolo marks can also be put on a single note. In this case, the note should not be surrounded by braces.
\repeat "tremolo" 4 c'16
Similar output is obtained using the tremolo subdivision, described in Tremolo subdivisions.
