Input notes are automatically assigned to voices according to the instrument mapping. However, you can also manually assign notes to different voices.

Procedure

  1. Activate the track that contains the notes that you want to assign to a different voice.
  2. Select Score > Instrument Settings.
  3. In the Voices section, activate as many voices as you need.
    Note

    If the selected track is a drum track, the Percussion section is shown instead. In that case, you must open the Drum Map Setup dialog and use the Voice column for the specific drum instruments to set up the voices.

  4. Optional: Specify your preferred stem direction and slash type.
  5. Close the dialog.
  6. In the score display, select the notes that you want to assign to a different voice.
  7. On the Note Input toolbar, click the corresponding Voice button.
    Clicking a Voice button assigns the selected notes to that voice

Result

The notes are assigned to the corresponding voice.

Note

To move notes to a different voice, you can also assign key commands to the commands Move to Voice 1-4 in the Score Editor category of the Key Commands dialog.
