One other Notion component you will use often is Score Setup. This semi-transparent overlay on
top of the score area enables you to very quickly add, move, change, and delete staves.
You must be in Edit mode to use Score Setup. There are various ways of opening it up. You can:
8 Click the button in the toolbar, or
8 Go to the Menu bar and select Score > Setup, or
8 Use the keyboard shortcut of Windows: Ctrl + T; Mac: + T.
Score Setup overlay over the score area (Mac).
To add a new instrument sta to your score:
A Select a sound source, such as Notion’s built-in sounds or a third-party library. You only see sources you have installed
on your computer, so your list may be shorter than the one shown above.
B After selecting the sound source, hover over an instrument family or click to lock it open. Click again to unlock.
C In a menu of available instruments within a family, select a particular instrument.
There is one exception: if you want to use a VSTi as a sound source other than EWQL
Symphonic Orchestra, Miroslav Philharmonik, or Vienna Symphonic Library, then:
A Click the generic VST Instruments option.
B Click the name of the VSTi you want to use.
C Verify by clicking the VSTi name; you assign instruments to channels inside the VSTi.
Score Setup also displays separate buttons to the left of measure one in each sta. These
buttons enable you to hide/show, delete, or change the appearance of individual staves.
To close Score Setup you can:
8 Click the Exit Score Setup button at the top, or
8 Press the Esc key, or
8 Click the button in the toolbar, or
8 Press the keyboard shortcut: Windows: Ctrl + T; Mac: + T.
