Moving notes to different instruments in percussion kits

You can move notes to different instruments in the same percussion kit after they have been input, except in layouts using the single-line instruments kit presentation type.

In layouts using the single-line instruments kit presentation type, you can instead cross notes to other staves to create cross-staff beams.

Procedure

  1. In Write mode, select the notes you want to move to a different instrument in the percussion kit.
  2. Move the notes to another instrument in any of the following ways:

    • Press Alt-Up Arrow to move them to the instrument above.

    • Press Alt-Down Arrow to move them to the instrument below.

    Note

    You can change the positions of instruments in the kit in the Edit Percussion Kit dialog for that percussion kit.

Result

The notes are moved to another instrument in the kit.
