I've seen it done in example files, but can't figure out how to do it myself. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I'm not 100% sure what you want to do. But if you're trying to make notes play on some repetitions and not others, then open up the "Properties" window from the Windows menu.

Expand the part of the window for Notes and you'll see 8 check boxes that specify whether a note will be played in each of up to 8 repetitions. Select any number of notes that all have the same behavior, and then check or uncheck the boxes as appropriate.

Of, if you want certain notes never to play, then indicate the same behavior in all 8 check boxes.

I hope this helps. If you're asking for something else, then please be more specific.
