Adding slash voices to percussion kits

You can add slash voices to percussion kits, for example, to show the desired rhythm for a

passage without specifying the instruments to be played. You can add multiple slash voices to

the same kit, including slash voices with and without stems.

NOTE

Rhythm slashes in percussion kits only appear when the ve-line staff presentation is used. They

do not appear in grid or single-line instrument presentations.

PROCEDURE

In the Players panel in Setup mode, expand the card of the player holding the percussion kit

to which you want to add slash voices.

Click the arrow that appears in the kit instrument label when you hover over it and choose

Edit Percussion Kit to open the Edit Percussion Kit dialog.

In the action bar below the ve-line staff editor, click the button that corresponds to the type

of slash voice you want to add.

● Slashes with stems

● Slashes without stems

4. Optional: Repeat step 3 as many times as required for the number of slash voices you want

to add.

RESULT

The slash voices are added to the kit. They are positioned on the middle line of the staff by

default.

In note input, you can move the caret to slash voices just like moving it to other instruments in

the kit, and input notes into slash voices just like inputting notes in percussion kit instruments.

AFTER COMPLETING THIS TASK

You can change the staff position of the slash voices you added to the kit.
