The <tied> element

Parent element: <notations>

The <tied> element represents the notated tie. The <tie> element represents the tie sound.

Ties that join two notes of the same pitch together should be represented with a <tied> element on the first note with type="start" and a <tied> element on the second note with type="stop". This can also be done if the two notes being tied are enharmonically equivalent, but have different step values. It is not recommended to use <tied> elements to join two notes with enharmonically inequivalent pitches.

Ties that indicate that an instrument should be undamped are specified with a single <tied> element with type="let-ring".

Ties that are visually attached to only one note, other than undamped ties, should be specified with two <tied> elements on the same note, first type="start" then type="stop". This can be used to represent ties into or out of repeated sections or codas.

When multiple <tied> elements with the same tag are used within the same note, their order within the MusicXML document should match the musical score order. For example, a note with a tie at the end of a first ending should have the <tied> element with a type of start precede the <tied> element with a type of stop.

Normal ties need only two bezier points: one associated with the start of the tie, the other with the stop. Ties divided over system breaks can specify additional bezier data at <tied> elements with a continue type.
