... a question come up about the name for some notation.
In rock (and maybe jazz) guitar, there is a note described as a "dead
note"
that is notated in both tablature and staff notation with a cross-style
notehead. This note is played on a muted string, so it gets rhythm
but no
real pitch.
The code has been developed with the name \deadNotesOn,
\deadNotesOff, and
\deadNote.
The same notation appears to be used in woodwinds for what is sometimes
called a "ghost note".
In my experience ghost notes are in parentheses.
