Hi!
I just updated my Sibelius to the latest version (2020.6), but now it seems that a lot of the menu bar possibilities are gone?
E.g. changing instruments in the percussion stem... Previously this was done with the `clarinet -> saxophone`- emoji (alt+shit+cmd+i).
Does anybody know how to do this with the latest version of Sibelius?
Thanks,
Bendik
Change instrument in score (e.g. snare drum to vibraphone)
Depending what your previous version was, you may have accomplished a downgrade. If you were on a version such as Sibelius 7.5 and changed to Sibelius 2020.6, you have lost a lot of functionality.
However, that should not have changed the sounds on your drum line. If your new version of Sibelius does NOT display the word Ultimate when it is starting (on the splash screen) you do NOT have the functionality you are looking for.
Also, you should realise that it is always a very bad idea to try to use an instrument change to alter an unpitched percussion staff to a pitched percussion staff. The effects can be unpredictable.
