Hello,

I've coded a song: lyrics with notes and a guitar rhythm. Nothing special 
so far. Now I would like to indicate the guitar rhythm above the
staff. For the rhythm I use the "\roqu" etc. macros from musixper.
What comes close to what I want is: use a second instrument/staff for 
that rhythm. That second staff should have no staff lines, no clef, no 
signatures, nothing of that all. Only the notes for the rhythm. The 
only thing that I cannot get rid of is the bars. Does anybody know a 
way to get rid of the bar lines?

I tried to code the notes in \zcharnotes, but that leaves me with
overfull or underfull hboxes. I also tried the following:
%%%
\input musixtex
\input musixcpt
\input musixsty
\input musixper
\instrumentnumber{1}
\startpiece
\znotes\wh h\wh m\en
\notes&\rocu h\roqu h\sk\rocu h%
       \ibu0h0\roqb0 h\nbbu0\roqb0 h\roqb0 h\roqb0 h%
       \tbbu0\roqb0 h\tbu0\roqb0 h\en   
\endpiece
\bye 
%%%
Note that I specify \instrumentnumber{1} but code for two instruments in
\notes&\rocu... This exactly almost like what I want, except for the fact
that the rhythm is now _below_ the staff. 

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
Ronald Gelten
