Dear List,
In a choral piece I used cross-noteheads for places, where the singers are requested to make a noise (in this case a kissing-noise). I used
d2
\once \override NoteHead.stencil = #ly:text-interface::print
\once \override NoteHead.text = \markup {
\musicglyph #"noteheads.s2cross"
} b4 d
as I found it in the documentation. For the PDF output, this works perfectly. Unfortunately die MIDI output gives me a "b". That is expected behavior, I suspect. My question is, wether anyone know a way to practically silence single notes from the MIDI-output. I would be content, if nothing could be heard instead of the b. I don't need another sound, or anything. Can someone point me to the place in the documentation or give me an idea of how to achieve this?
I use \version "2.17.13"
Thanks a lot!
best regards
