Assign notes automatically
to ungroup them.
Note: You can only move notes within the stave of the corresponding track during "Multi-
object editing".
When transcribing a MIDI piano recording, splitting the notes into a two-line piano system
using the split point is recommended. This specifies that the notes above the split point
pitch belong in the upper system and that the other notes belong below it. The positions
where individual notes are placed incorrectly can be corrected easily by assigning the notes
manually with a click on the desired system.
Automatic assignment of notes to a specific staff is flexible. Either the MIDI channel of the
note event, the pitch, or even a combination of the two can make up the criteria. This
permits simpler and faster distribution of MIDI notes in the score line.
Example: It's often the case with some standard MIDI files that the notes of a particular
piano piece's lower system have a different MIDI channel than those of the upper system's
notes. Let's assume the right-hand notes are on channel 1 and the left-hand notes are on
channel 2. In this case, set up two note lines for the system in the note system settings.
The easiest way to do this is with the "Piano" preset. For the first note line, set the MIDI
channel allocation to "Ch. 1" in the "Channel" selection box and "Ch. 2" for the second
note line. Deactivate assignment by pitch by setting the split point to "0" (compare with
MIDI score settings dialog (view page 259)).
The rules for assignment are as follows:
If the "Automatic system allocation" option (preset) is set for the note, the note lines will be
played through until the MIDI channel corresponds with it and the pitch is over or equal to
the split point.
Note: It may happen that some notes are not shown at all – that's because they haven't
been assigned to a system yet.
Multi-voice notation
Up to two independent voices can be annotated for each staff. The voices differ in the
direction of the note stems: the first voice is always with the stem pointing upwards, the
second with the stem pointing downwards. Pauses are displayed individually for each
voice.
