I want to specify a duration (tie length) for \laissezVibrer as in:
a4\laissezVibrer{1}
meaning put a tie of duration whole-note on the 1/4 note "a". Knowing how long
to let a note ring seems essential to describe the music for a player. I
searched the web and found others asking a similar question but I could not
find a good answer. I appreciate that it is my problem if this tie bangs into
something downstream.
Is this something that could perhaps be expressed by writing a whole
note with special articulations/dynamics/other markings? If it has a
clearly defined duration, it might be easier to acknowledge that in the
conventional way. When I see an l.v., I tend to assume that it was
written that way because the duration is intentionally not defined.
I'm guessing that what's required iѕ some way of communicating a
quarter-note of full tone followed by a dotted-half of "reverb" (if
that's the correct term).
