Sib 8.5.0. I scanned and imported a choral score. Many of the Bass voice staff notes are red. I assume Sibelius thinks they are out of range, but the notes are all within the range shown in Home / Edit Instruments / Singers / Bass / Edit Instrument: Comfortable F2 to E4 (see attachment). I know I can disable View / Note Colors / Notes Out Of Range, but I'd like to understand what's happening.

At the start of the bass staff insert an instrument change (Home->Change) this should replace the staff with a true bass voice staff. I have this problem with my scores when I'm transcribing. The Bass part comes in with the wrong clef and this sorts it out.
