Different instrument sounds on one same part?
Hi,
I'm writing something for percussion and realised that it would be great if - same as when you can select the sound in strings "pizz" or "arco" through a stave text- if I can do the same with drum sounds or any other than strings.
For example, I've got a crotales part that is bowed. Then the sound is sustained, I'd like to change the crotales library for a flute or whatever. Is that possible?
Thanks,
F

You can add an instrument changes from the text palette, then select a new instrument from that point. Or if you can find a soundfont that includes all the sounds you want as different pitches in a single drumset, you can use that.

Thank you, Marc. I thought about instrument change. I was wondering if the same way that you can change the instrument library on the mixer pallete for the main instrument, you can also do it for the instruments changes in between. As they don't appear in the mixer I don't know if this is possible, is it?
Thanks again

Yes, once you add the instrument change, a new sub-channel appears in the Mixer, click the arrow at the top of the channel strip to expand it.
