X headed notes play

• Jul 17, 2010 - 01:37

I'm digitalizing a piece that contains X headed notes that are supposed to be spoken, not sung.
However, when I edit the note heads and choose X, the notes still play! How can I make them silent?

Thanks in advance!

Right click on a note -> Note properties. Set velocity type to Custom and set the value to 0.
OR
You can also use an invisible dynamic (for example ppp) and right click on it -> Midi properties to change the velocity. Don't forget to put another dynamic (invisible or not) after the X head section to have your volume back.
