#### 8.4.6 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]
>            }
>          >>
