398 Chapter 15 Score Editor
• The Staves-Voices-Drum Groups hierarchy runs from left to right, and is shown by
horizontal lines, which indicate the borders between these elements: each Drum
Group belongs to the Voice at the same horizontal position. The Pos. parameter
affects the vertical positioning of all notes of the corresponding Drum Group. The
value shown here is an offset, which is added/subtracted to the relative positions
defined for the individual notes in the Drum Map Editor.
Creating and Editing Your Own Mapped Score Styles
This is very similar to creating non-mapped polyphonic Score Styles. Select New >
Mapped Score Style in the Score Style window, and insert all desired staves, Voices, and
Drum Groups—with menu functions (New) or the pencil tool.
The copy, insert, and paste functions for single staves, Voices, and Drum Groups also
work as described in the Copying Voices or Staves into other Score Styles section (see
“Copying Voices or Staves” on page 396).
Prior to defining the details of a Mapped Score Style, you should set up all Drum
Groups, note head shapes, and relative note position parameters in the Drum Map
Editor.
The best method is to use an existing drum MIDI Region, and open the Score window
(to display the MIDI Region), the Drum Map Editor, and the Score Style window. This
way, you can directly see how parameter changes affect the score display.
Using Mapped Score Styles for Non-Mapped Instruments
If you use a Mapped Score Style for the display of a regular (non-mapped) instrument,
Logic will simply use the default settings for Mapped Instruments (which correspond to
the General MIDI drum sound assignments), to determine the mapping of notes to
Drum Groups. This is not recommended, however, as this method is less flexible (there
will only be default Drum Groups available, for example).
Note Attributes
The term “Note Attributes” is used for all display parameters that can be set individually
per note, regardless of the settings in other windows and boxes.
The Note Attributes window opens when you double-click on a notehead (presuming
that Preferences > Score Preferences > Double Click Note To Open: Note Attributes is
selected). The settings shown in this window correspond to the double-clicked
note(head).
Different settings are assigned to a note by selecting the corresponding Attributes
submenu, with the note selected. This attribute assignment can also be made for a
group of selected notes. The same applies to the assignment of Note Attributes when
using key commands.
