Selective Silence on a Staff

I'd like to be able to surpress the output of a staff
during a repeat. If "Midi Control -> Instrument Patch ->
Patch Name - <none>" resulted in silent output, I'd have
what I need. It doesn't, at least on my system.

Inserting a "Multipoint Controler" patch with Volume = zero
almost works, but the staff is still audible. Same for
using an explicit Dynamic and overriding the midi volume
setting.

Worthy Noters, any suggestions?

this works for me-

(perhaps you missed the check marks or did not zero the velocity?)

repeat open
notes
insert\dynamic\, check override volume=0, check override velocity=0
repeat close
insert\dynamic\, uncheck override volume, incheck override velocity
notes

Do you want to shut up a staff when playing ?

If I really understood your question, then you have a
very simple way to do that:
1) select the staff
2) click on the appropriate button (I don't remember
how it is called, but if I remember it represents a
speaker)

I hope this helps
