Suspended Cymbal ''l.v.'' bug?

Postby kvapka » Fri Apr 06, 2012 3:42 pm

I have problem with this sign l.v. (i dont know what this sign mean, but i discover, this sign is like pedal - it hold note for percussions and instrument with not constant sound (keyboards, mallets)). If i create half note for sus. cymbal with tremolo and add l.v., the sound is damp out. Without l.v. sign, the sound immediate stop after note end. Problem is, if i create notes with ties - 3 bars for example, the l.v. sign dont work. And sometimes dont work if i create for 4/4 half brake and half note with tremolo and make crescendo. The sound stop after note.

************************************
From Wikipedia:

laissez vibrer, l.v. (Fr): allow the sound to continue, do not damp; used frequently in harp music, occasionally in piano or percussion. For percussion & electric guitar, "let ring" is more common

************************************

I think the main issue you are having is that you are not using the the "l.v." direction normally. This direction is usually used on instruments that can sustain a pitch after the note is played without effort (like a harp or some percussion), so it doesn't makes sense to place the direction on sustained notes (like tied notes or a half note) or use the direction on instruments that require effort to sustain (like a trumpet, violin, etc).

you right, i forgot say, this problem is when i used tremolo for suspended cymbal and tremolo in tied notes are something like sustained note (constant sound) and after note are stop playing and with l.v. dont work for sus. cymbal with tied notes or if note end in bar line. But for tam-tam work right. Try it and maybe you know what i want say. Sorry for bad english.

I discover that dont work in sus cymbal it work on tam-tam and other way round.
