Hello!
I'm new with Sibelius 7.
Please tell me,
what is the fastest way for note input with computer keyboard,
without or rare mouse clicking?
Perhaps there is a video somewhere.
Thank you for tips

If you have a full sized keyboard make use of the num pad to set the length of the note then press and # or b (again on the num pad) and then the letter of the note you want to use. I use this method to enter melodies rather fast.

When I travel and only have a laptop I try to avoid entering many notes. Have not found a good solution for a laptop keyboard, yet.

Curious to hear how others do it.
