Description

Your idea

It would be nice to have the niente technique available to allow you to crescendo from nothing or decrescendo to nothing.

Problem to be solved

As well as being a fairly common technique used, it would solve some instruments issues (notably piccolo) that sound way too loud at ppp when you want to bring an instrument's volume down at the end of the note, like in real life.
