Main + Tip , anagram
I need to double check the parse for the other.

19 down I am a bit confused :so broadcast means it is an anagram? MAIN with the first letters of percussion in the- but then where is the answer. Is it Percussion?
Yes, Timpani is the percussion section.
Mainly kettledrums but also used generally.

Thanks so much for taking the time to explain
Broadcast can be an anagram indicator (broadcast =spread》 but i don't see where TIP comes from in the clue
Sorry can see it now
P(ercussion) I(n) T(he) + main (anagram)
So percussion is used twice- in wordplay and in defintion?
Naughty isn't it!
Yes, it's also an '& lit' - I was well off form in explaining yesterday.
