The dynamics popover allows you to input all types of dynamics using the keyboard, including whole dynamic phrases containing immediate and gradual dynamics simultaneously, such as p<f>p.

You can open the dynamics popover in Write mode in any of the following ways when either an item is selected or the caret is active:

  • Press Shift-D.

  • In the Notations toolbox, click Popovers , then Dynamics .

  • Select an existing dynamic and press Return.

  • Choose Writeand thenCreate Dynamic.

The icon on the left-hand side of the popover matches the corresponding button in the Notations toolbox on the right of the window.

Note
  • To input a parenthesized dynamic, enclose its entry in round brackets, such as (f).

  • Pairs of separate hairpins are treated differently than messa di voce hairpins. For example, separate hairpins each have start and end handles in Write mode, whereas messa di voce hairpins share a single center handle.
