Re: bug with midi output (crescendos)

[Mats Bengtsson]

It is also well-known that this problem only appears for voices where the
(de)crescendo happens before the first absolute dynamic, so a simple
workaround is to add a \mf or \p or whatever before the (de)crescendo.
If you don't want it in the printed output, you could set the transparent
property.
