Hi,
I converted a midi to lilypond format, and am trying to make my way through
the notation.
One of the tracks starts with this:
s16*259 <a' b >16 <e' d >16 <a, b >16 s16 <a b >16 <e' d >16
I get that s16, I think, is pretty much equivalent to a 16th rest for that
voice? But what's s16*259? Is that a ridiculously short rest, or 259 16th
rests?
I'm thinking the former, but it's not making much sense.
Thanks,
Brandon

The "*" is a multiplication sign. "s16*259" means "skip (i.e. invisible
rest) a 16th note 259 times.
