Re: Page 1 Layout

A lot depends on what else is also on page 1.

Usually a combination of turning off auto page breaks, dragging staves/systems up and/or down and slightly altering page and/or staff margins and using space aboe/below staves and optimisation will eventually sort out the problem.

Re: Uneven result regarding distance of staves inside pagema

And after you did it did you reset space above, reset space below and then optimize? (In that exact order)

I'd also check the settings in Page Setup. Sometimes, for no reason I can determine, these can be less than optimal.

Re: Uneven result regarding distance of staves inside pagema

Tick the box After 1st page. Does that make a difference?

Re: barlines

Click the top of a barline in the LH staff and drag it up to the RH staff. (It should show a small box (handle) when you have clicked in the correct place.

Piano staves are normally produced already joined. Did you create this one from two separate bass/treble staves.

Re: Printing Does Not Match Score?

Has your printer driver been updated recently? Thiis is definitely a disconnect between the margins on the page (i.e. what your printer can manage) and what you are telling sibelius to do.

Have you tried printing/exporting to pdf and printing from that? If so, does it produce any better results?

Re: Printing Does Not Match Score?

I agree with Bob. Check that your printer page size matches the one set in sib. Basically, you are printing some of the music 'off the page'. In the print dialog, choose Scale --> fit to paper to see if that will help.

Re: Beginner searching for advice

That would have been my suggestion, too. Actually, I have heard it recommended to remove the Generic Low latency driver as well. it is installed bt Stenberg with Cubase, but it can cause problems with other Sib drivers. Also, the latency is usually sky high. The order of preference for trying differ...

Re: Printing Does Not Match Score?

We're unlikely to be able to helpthrough guess work. You need to show us the actual sib file. My best guess would be that you have dragged one or more barlines around and this is showing up in the printout. however, we can only guess. You should also tell us your machine specs (OS etc) and the make ...

Re: Sample Rate Issues

If you use bluetooth headphones I'm afraid there will be a lot of crackling whatever you do. The best you can do is experiment with all the options. I don't have any experience with the Surface Pro, but most PC based machines still tend to use 44.1k with a lowish sample size 512-1024. I suspect you ...

Re: Add notes to staff, after whole note chord

OK. This is much easier! Put the chord in voice 2 and the melodic notes in voice 1. It might be easier to do the melodic notes first. Enter them as normal. Instead of a rest at the start of the bar place the first note as the top note of the chord as an 8th. Don't worry about it joining to the other...

Re: Add notes to staff, after whole note chord

Hi Moriah,

Look below the main box where you type your message. There's a Tab that says "Upload Attachment". Click on it and you should see a browse button. Don't forget to click "Add the file" once you have added it.
