Combining individual percussion instruments into kits
If a player is holding one or more individual percussion instruments, you can combine them into
a percussion kit.
PROCEDURE
1. Right-click the card of the player whose percussion instruments you want to combine into a
kit and choose Combine Instruments into Kit from the context menu.
2. Edit the kit in the Edit Percussion Kit dialog that opens.
For example, you can change the order in which the instruments appear in a grid or on a
ve-line staff.
RESULT
A new kit is created containing all the instruments held by the player.
NOTE
If the player was already holding one or more kit instruments, all individual instruments and any
other kits are combined into the rst kit.
Changing instruments
You can change the instruments held by players without affecting any music already entered
onto their staves, for example, if your Clarinet part is very low and you want to change it to a
Bass Clarinet or you want to change the tuning of a guitar.
NOTE
● You cannot change percussion kits into other instruments, you can only change individual
unpitched percussion instruments.
●
You cannot change a pitched instrument into an unpitched instrument, and vice versa.
●
These steps describe changing the instrument type, not an instrument change partway
through a ow.
PROCEDURE
1. In the Players panel, expand the card of the player whose instrument you want to change.
The card lists the instruments of the player.
