Chapter 16 Score Editor 555

Instrument

In this column, you determine which (track) instruments are included in the Instrument

Set, and in which vertical order they will appear in the score. As in the Score Style

window, there is a narrow column at the left margin, where you can set an insert mark

(>) with a mouse click, or selection marks by dragging the mouse vertically. With these

selection marks, instrument entries are selected. With the usual cut/copy/paste

commands (Edit menu or key commands), you can move entries to change their order,

delete them, or copy them into other Instrument Sets. If you Paste them, they will be

pasted at the position of the insert mark, which you need to set to the desired position

beforehand.

If you double-click below the instrument list, a new instrument entry is added at the

bottom of the list. If you want to add an instrument somewhere in the middle of the

list, set the insert mark accordingly, and select New > Add Instrument Entry.

Click-hold on the name of this new entry (Instrument column). A pull-down menu with

all available track instruments will appear, that you can select from.

In most cases, it is convenient to create a new Instrument Set with New > New Complete

Set, since all instruments currently used in the Arrange window will be included

automatically. You can, however, also select New > New Empty Set, into which you then

can insert the desired instruments one by one. Other options in this menu are

Duplicate Set; which creates a copy of the currently visible Instrument Set, that you can

use as a basis for another set, and New Set of Selected Insts., which creates a new

Instrument Set containing all currently selected instruments.

At the highest zoom level, the Track Instrument icons are also displayed in this column.

Please note: you will not see a new Instrument Set in the Score window until it was

chosen from the pull-down menu in the Instrument Set Box.

Full Name

If you click in this column on any line, an entry field opens with the default entry

“@(reference)”. If you don’t change this, the Track Instrument name will be used as the

name for that instrument in the score. However, since the track instrument name often

is identical with the corresponding synthesizer patch (i.e. Solostrings high), you will

probably wish to assign another name here. This name will automatically be displayed

in the score as the full name, for example “Violin 1”. The display parameters for the

instrument names are set in Layout > Numbers & Names (see “Numbers & Names” on

page 564).

Short Name

Here you can define an abbreviated name for each instrument, which is used if in the

Layout > Numbers & Names dialog window short names is selected for the instrument

name display.
