Change of Instrument within a score

• Apr 22, 2017 - 19:41

Could you please advise as to how I can alter a complete part line of music
on a score i.e.: from Piano to Voice, Violin to recorder. I can move the
instrument title up or down, but it takes the whole line of music. I cannot
find any reference to this in the handbook.
Many thanks
Peter Chipperfield

It isn't totally clear to me what you mean. Can you attach the score you are having trouble with and explain in more detail what you are trying to do?

If you have already entered music onto a staff but now you want to change it to another instrument, right click the staff, Staff Properties, Change Instrument. That changes sound as well as name, transposition, etc. If you just want to change the playback sound, try View / Mixer instead.

if you mean you want the same musician to physically switch from violin to recorder in the middle of a piece (this would be extremely unusual!), then use the Instrument text from the Text palette, then right click and Change Instrument.
