Precisely what I don't want to do. There are hundreds of these and similar, and they sit on long notes. I know it's peculiar, but that's not the answer I am looking for, thanks. What I want may not be possible. I may be pushing uphill here. What I have will do the job, but not quite optimal. What I was asking was not how to do dynamics, but whether a custom dynamic can be made to do the job.
