![]() ![]() However, following feudal Japan's surrender to powerful aliens known as the "Amanto," those aspirations now seem unachievable. I'll include the the musescore file in the attachements.Edo is a city that was home to the vigor and ambition of samurai across the country. That's how I got the ghost note sound I like, it's a lot of work but if you really need the audio to be correct and you have time, it's worth it. ![]() Then fineally I change the velocity of every individual ghost note to '-40%' (you can change the instrument sound of an individual voice by adding 'staff text' right click on the text and go to staff text properties, select voice one, in the first bar, select voice 2 in the second bar and make that one 'slap' it is then connected to the 'slap bass' in the mixer, where you can change the sound.)Īfter that, I add a 'staccatissimo' articulation to every ghost note. I have struggled with the same issue and have fineally found the sound in musescore that I think is very close to perfect, although it requires a lot of steps.įirst I make the ghost notes a different voice, that voice I give the sound of the 'acoustic bass'. If you add the standard staff again, it will remember the X note heads. Once this is done, you can open the instruments dialog, select staff 2 and click Remove to get rid of the unneeded staff. Once you are done changing note heads to X you can right click an x note head and choose Select>All similar elements and then follow Cadiz1's instructions above for fixing playback. This will change all selected note heads to an X In the inspector under the Note section is a label that says Head Group: and the dropdown says Normal. You may press ctrl and click additional note heads to fix several at once or just do one at a time. There are several ways to do the next step, but I'll only explain one.Ĭlick a note that corresponds to an x note on the tablature staff. To the right of staff 2 is a dropdown that says, Tab. Open the instruments dialog by pressing i.Ĭlick staff 1 under the Guitar. The x noteheads in a tablature staff are not the same as x noteheads on a standard staff. So, only the ghost notes are now kept in this staff: 3Electric bass.msczĤ) First staff: right-click on a ghost note -> Select -> All similar elements in same staff -> In Inspector, untick "Play" 4Electric bass.msczĥ) For the second staff now: open Mixer (F10): change the sound of the second instrument: ie choose "Palm muted guitar (instead of Fingered bass) + Reduce strongly the volume let's say eg keep more or less 30 percent, according to your preference 5Electric bass.msczĦ) And so back to square one now: press "I" (Instruments dialog) -> Untick "Visibility" for the second bass - OKįinal result, as the first file: 6Electric bass.mscz But you will have wanted it! :)ġ) Add a second instrument (ie electric bass) : 1Electric bass.msczĢ) Copy-paste the content of first staff in second staff: 2Electric bass.msczģ) Second staff: right-click on a note with "normal" notehead -> Select -> all similar elements in same staff -> Cut (Ctrl + X). So, again, just a workaround (and a bit consumer of time). The same after disable playback: Selection1.mscz With a tempo high/relatively high, common case with this effect, the result (for my ears!) is better that hear these « ghost » notes. NB : and if there is systematic patterns (as image above), it will be probably better (and faster!) to disable playback of these notes with Select → More. And it is not completely satisfactory, expected, as sound result. And of course, after disable playback of ghost notes of the first staff ![]() So, I would rather use a second invisible staff with a Palm Muted guitar sound in the Mixer (with reduced volume). Using the mid-staff change feature would probably become unmanageable in this case of multiple small passages or ghost isolated notes. 2) There is currently no native feature in the program that allows to easily transform one note or more small sequence of notes in ghost notes with good playback
