Description

Your idea

So, my request for features in a future version of MuseScore, or, come to think of it, for an update to the MuseSounds, is to include the "Mute" effect for the Muse Brass.

Problem to be solved

Recently I've been working on one of my many projects and I said to myself "Hey, there's some flavor missing here" and when I realized it I wanted to add the indication "muted" to the brass to give a bit of texture to my work. Mine was surprised when I reproduced the passage in question and it didn't sound as I thought. I checked that everything was fine, until I saw the features of the MuseSounds, and realized that it didn't include the "mute" effect.

Research direction

The issue names MuseBrass and MuseSounds but mentions no repository file, test, or entry point. Start by locating how brass playback effects are represented and where MuseSounds content is defined; done would require a clearly scoped mute effect that works for the relevant brass instruments.
