No.

 

When a lane is disco-flipped, it becomes broken on pro drums. This phenomenon can be seen in the RBN songs “Need Strange”, “Ooh La La”, and “Back to You”. Basically, the lane acts as if it doesn’t exist, and in order to maintain your combo, you need to hit the notes charted exactly (which essentially completely negates the purpose of putting a lane there in the first place). It will work as intended on regular drums, but pro drums is a no-go in this situation, which you do not want in your chart.

 

Interesting! I had already decided not to lane from the other comments, but that definitely settles it.

 

Now I have to admit I’m curious – how would a red/yellow double lane work on pro disco flip? Not that I can imagine how that would ever be something you’d actually want to do, but from a purely mechanical standpoint, I’m curious how the game would handle it.

 

Thanks everyone for the feedback!

As always, workarounds like this should be used only when there is no reasonable way to have it look good within the rules.

But keep HARM1 sane, and restrict the craziness to H2 and H3.

 

Yeah, this is just a weird case where HARM3 completely takes over the “lead” position for a verse and HARM1 ends up functioning as a backing vocalist. Not something I would normally try to do, but it’s really necessary here.

 

Also,

 

“Waiting for the End” by Linkin Park has it. https://youtu.be/Z68als2r0mY?t=2m50s

 

I knew it!! I’d be curious to see how that was achieved. It’s also interesting because that really doesn’t look like a situation that would need it.

This can also be done with “+” as the lyric for the second note, which works better with scrolling lyrics.

Does that not violate the strict “no slides” rule? And I also assume it wouldn’t apply to an unpitched syllable, which is the case for me.
