Changing the voice of individual notes in percussion kits

You can override the default voice for individual notes in percussion kits, including drum sets.

Prerequisite

If you are in Engrave mode, Graphic Editing is selected in the Engrave toolbox.

Procedure

  1. Select the notes whose voice you want to override. You can do this in Write mode and Engrave mode.
  2. Choose Edit > Percussion > Change Voice > [Voice].

    For example, to change notes to the second down-stem voice, choose Edit > Percussion > Change Voice > Down-stem Voice 2. You can also choose this option from the context menu.

Result

The voice of the selected notes is changed, independently of the default voice for their instrument and independently of your setting for voices in drum sets.

Tip

You can reset the voice of individual notes by selecting them and choosing Edit > Percussion > Change Voice > Reset Note Destination Voice. You can also choose this option from the context menu.
