Decrescendo

How can I get several instruments to decrescendo and others to stay the same. I have a note that is sustained for 4 measures on several intruments that I want to diminish while another intrument plays something that I want to stay at the same volume.

Make sure that the instrument which stays the same level is on a separate midi channel from the others.
Then apply the volume change (decresc., dim., volume or expression mpc) to those other instruments.
Sustained notes do not respond to velocity changes, and the performance of soundcards does vary. There is a file in the "samples" directory which tests this.
