I want to change from soprano sax to alto sax, at the beginning of the score, not some place else. I can type in the name alto sax, but that doesn't change the transportation. I need to change to alto sax which means the transposition would also change.
Thanks.
Changing an instrument in a score
Insert an instrument change before the start of the staff (ie where the instruument name is on the left). Make sure you do this at the very start of the score.

Mike, I'm doing something wrong. I deleted the name Soprano Sax and typed in Alto Sax 1 at the very beginning of the score, right before the first bar, hit save and then hit Transposing Score button. It didn't change the Also Sax to the right key which should be a sixth higher. It changed it as though the Soprano sax was still there, up one whole tone which is the right transposition for the Soprano sax not the Alto. I went to the "Change" button under Home, but that changes the instrument at a further point in the score. Don't want that.
Well that's because it's still an alto sax staff.
Did you do what I suggested?
Insert an instrument change (Home->Change) where you would expect the instrument name to be.
If it's not working, the best solution would be to add an alto sax instrument and copy/paste the music from the one to the pther.
