Hi there;
Total newbie here - day 3 of free trial but have been using Anvil Studio for 10+ years for inputting scores from the two non-pro choirs I sing in into SATB parts. I love the ease of use of Sibelius and will continue to use it so here is my issue:
I imported a MIDI file from Anvil Studio with SATB parts and they imported with the voices in Soprano and Tenor very high and the Bari/Bass parts low. I could not find a way to fix this until I extracted the parts and then kept hitting the Transpose button several times and also manually (select All, and using the down/up keys as appropriate) to force them into proper position. Have now added slurs, staccatos and other notations in the parts and now I want to get them back into into a conductor's score for printing. Hitting a wall. What am I missing? Please be explicit in any and all instructions.
Humbly I thank you for your expertise...
John
Extracted SATB parts back into one SATB score
I'm sorry, John, but the firat thing you need to do is rad the manual (presss F1 or use the ? in the top right corner) from cover to cover. Most of what you need is in there.
If a part is too high triple click the staff and then press [ctrl/cmd][down arrow} to move it down an octave
If a part is too low triple click the staff and then press [ctrl/cmd][up arrow]. to move it up an octave.
Do not extract parts. That is no longer necessary except in very special circumstances. To look at an individual part to tweak it, select a bar on the staff and press w. To cycle between all the parts and the score press [ctrl/cmd]#.
