Add Instrument Definition for LinnStrument
The LinnStrument (https://www.rogerlinndesign.com/linnstrument) is a grid controller and behaves basically like a 8 string bass guitar, so tabs are a good way to write sheetmusic for it. It would be cool if the corresponding instrument definitions were already included in Musesecore.
Here is my instrument file as a starting point:
