Hello Dennis,
in the original there is no flag at all (we should change that on mss.slweiss.de ...). These preludes are relative freely, sort of "prélude non mesuré" as you wrote, but very often they have some pulse in it, that you can find, if you play it several times
I would say, it is in the response of the player to make sense out of it.

Best regards
Markus

I'm trying to make rhythmical sense of this prelude (WeissSW 33.1)

This site:
<http://mss.slweiss.de/index.php?id=1&type=ms&ms=D-Dl2841-1&lang=deu&showmss=1>

gives a quarter note at the beginning of the tablature

And here there is no rhythmical value:

The transcription gives mostly 16th notes, though they don't fit into a
regular meter, at least at the beginnin.

Is this a sort of "prélude non mesuré"?  Do the slurs give any metrical
indication? Is there any way of knowing which notes fall "on the beat"
in the first two "staves"?

Thanks.

Dennis
