Re: Piano sustain pedal

[Federico Bruni]

I would have tried removing the engraver.
Does this affect the MIDI too?

Honestly I can't hear any difference in the MIDI between sustained and 
not sustained notes. Is sostenuto supported in MIDI?


\version "2.20.0"
%\include "articulate.ly"

\score {
 \new Staff \with {
   \remove "Piano_pedal_engraver"
 }
 \relative {
   c''4 d e g
   <c, f a>1

   c4\sustainOn d e g
   <c, f a>1\sustainOff
 }

 \layout {}
 \midi {}
}
