Changing Instrument on Imported score

• Aug 25, 2024 - 18:29

Hi, I imported a classical guitar score from a pdf. The score looks good but the instrument is defaulting to voice. When changing instrument to classical guitar it formats the score to be played at one octave higher than shown. I can't see an octave higher sign on the score.
Can I format the score to be played as shown rather than one octave higher or alternatively default the instrument to classical guitar on the import

This is what I've seen with a test example. Although the original clef is the Treble Clef 8va bassa, the conversion results in the usual Treble clef. So, if this is the case, put back the Treble clef 8va bassa, then select all (Ctrl/Cmd + A) and type Ctrl/Cmd + down arrow (to change octave).
If needed, you can attach the .mscz file for further assistance.

See with the example:
First result after conversion: conversion.mscz
(NB: I only changed the Voice instrument for the Classical Guitar instrument. It's better for the sound...)
After edition (as explained above): edit conversion.mscz
