I have downloaded the demo version of Printmusic for writing organ music and then saving it as an audio/mp3 file.

As some might know, a feature of an organ with its swell pedal is the ability to increase the volume on one held note - e.g. on the final note of an introductory passage to a hymn. Is there any way I can produce that in Printmusic and have it played back accurately?

On a similar subject, if I am holding a note - either as a tied series of notes or a fermata, how can I stop the sound fading as the note's duration comes to its end?

Many thanks.

For the first, try putting a dynamic on the note, and a lower one on the following note.

For the second, I don't think you can. With PM, you can't alter playback or HP settings.
