536 Chapter 16 Score Editor

Clef

Here you select the clef which is used in the Score Style from a pull-down menu.

Besides the usual clefs, this menu also offers some special options:

• Drum.0 to Drum.8: staves with 0 to 8 lines and a “neutral” percussion clef. The

relationship of MIDI note pitches to the top line of all staves corresponds to the top

line in regular bass clef (A2). However, no accidentals will be displayed in these drum

staffs. Drum.0 also omits any ledger lines. These clefs will often be used in Mapped

Drum Styles (see “Drum Notation with Mapped Score Styles” on page 546), where the

height of a note does not correspond to pitch, but is determined by different Drum

Map parameters.

• no clef.0 to no clef.8: like Drum…, but without any clef.

• TAB Guitar… and TAB Bass…: 12 different options for displaying notes as guitar or

bass tablature. These tablature Tuning Sets are defined in the tablature window

(Layout > Guitar Tablature…), where they also can be edited.

Trans

The display transposition, measured in half steps up or down. This parameter does not

affect MIDI playback. If a staff contains chord symbols, these too will be transposed

accordingly. If Automatic Key Transposition in Layout > Clefs & Signatures is activated

(which is the default setting), the key signatures will also be transposed (exception see

next paragraph).

Key

If this parameter is set to Hide, the corresponding staff is displayed without any key

signature. Instead, all sharps and flats are indicated directly next to the notes. This

parameter will usually be set to Show the key signature. Hide is an option mainly used

for transposed french horn parts, which are sometimes written without any key

signature.

Note: The above mentioned option Automatic Key Transposition has a similar effect on

the whole song. There however, the non-transposed basic key signature is still

indicated, whereas Hide Key suppresses any key signature.

Rest

The automatic rest display can be switched off here (HIDE), or set to display Beat Slashes

instead of rests. This is useful for rhythm section parts and improvised solos. In this

case, the number of slashes per bar will be determined by the nominator in the time

signature (i.e. 4 slashes in 4/4-time, 6 slashes in 6/8-time and so on). Inserted notes and

symbols will still be displayed, but automatic rests are only shown if they are shorter

than one beat. You can insert User Rests manually, to replace the Beat Slashes at certain

points.
