The Sibelius Forum

OK, now I'm comfused. What and where is the 'rescore' button? Is it in Sib or PS?

OK, take a chill pill. You are expecting answers from a user forum instantly? Never gonna happen! (unless, maybe, you try either the 'official' forums or the FB pages. See my earlier answers. Do not add an ossia, add a new staff/instrument. In fact, go back to the photoscore scan (you DID save the ....

Just to reiterate:

When you import from PS into Sib, you need to unlock format ([ctrl]a followed by [ctrl][shift]u).

Sibelius defaults to 4 bars per system.

How much of the manual have you read? Don't get frustrated, RTFM!

I would love more intuitive formatting options. Wouldn't we all!! However, if you take the time to read both the Sibelius and PS manuals, you will find a lot of useful and, indeed, helpful information in there. Both manuals are on your computer as pdf files. I am a new user and many of the things t...

OK, let me try to make it clearer. If your sheet music has three staves, they will initially be named Staff 1, Staff 2 and Staff 3. If the first system only has two staves they will be named Staff 1 and staff 2 by PS. You have to change the assignment to staff 2 and staff 3. This is made easier if y...

Select all, Filter for chord symbols, use the ribbon button to add/remove chord diagrams (on the text tab of the ribbon.

You have to make sure that PS has allocated all the staves correctly for every system. If you double-click the staff name, you are given the opportunity to name them, either manually or by chosing from a list. See pics. Then all you have to do is make sure voice and piano are allocated to the right ...

The ads are a 'feature' of this board, which is annoying. As to your question: There is no way round the fact that you have to spend a fair amount of time ensuring that the scan is correct BEFORE you pass it to sibelius. If you don't, you will get all sorts of rubbish and can even make sibelius cras...

You can find this information here: https://www.avid.com/sibelius-ultimate/comparison#General-features Although it doesn't specificall mention clefs, the implication is that these are only available in Ultimate. I think you'll find that a free program like First will give you a less than satisfactor...

According to the Avid comparison chart https://www.avid.com/sibelius-ultimate/ ... nd-Sharing you can't export audio directly from Sib First.

Neither can you use external vsti libraries to playback your music. This is only available in the full Sibelius/Sibelius Ultimate.

Set up your layout and export a MSS paper or House style (MSS paper is likely to be more successful) Other than that, I don't think you can. Is there a reason why you want this? All pieces of music are different. it is rare, in my experience, for them all to use the exact same layout successfully. W...

Does Parts->Copy part layout not do what you want?

I'm sure there are apps out there, but they would be prohibitively expensive.

If you use scorch or the sibelius cloud player, you can only hear the midi sounds, which are, to be frank, bloody awful. Make decent mp3s by using a decent sound library - or real players - and put a link to that instead. you can still show the score. You could also try creating a video of your scor...

I'm not exactly sure what you arying to achieve, but if you want to hide empty staves ([ctrl][shift][alt]h, it is best if you make line breaks at places where the instrumentation changes.
