Notation software is designed for just that. The use of sounds is an addition in functionality to that. Laying out scores requires the same amount of resources as intermediate typesetting/desktop publishing so really, for Fin/Sib to do what they are designed PRIMARILY to do, does not and probably w...

EVERY other notation program has that limitation... yes, but most will warn you, or will just refuse to load stuff that would put them "over the edge". otherwise, what is essentially user error doesn't get construed as a "bug". it's just a missing feature, at worst. sibelius is ...

check your memory usage via windows task manager. Notion is a 32 bit app, and as such, it will only allow you to use about 2gb of RAM in a project. If you're pretty close to that limit, it will crash. It will not warn you or prevent you from exceeding the RAM limit, either. This sounds like it's the...

yeah, it's still there, and as annoying as ever. this and the lyric entry issues are my top two gripes.

hey, that's a great idea! thanks, Steve!

I'm going to assume you're using your laptop's internal soundcard...here's a couple of things to check: Make sure your midi interface is plugged in. Open notion. go to File (in the top left corner), and select preferences. In the preferences window, select the audio tab. select the "default&quo...

i'll confirm both issues. furthermore, entering lyrics in continuous page mode is a real mess as well. the lyrics move down a line with each tab-press (to go to the next syllable). switching the view to something else, then back again corrects it, but once you start entering lyrics again, the same p...

Even if you create a "Basic Staff" on your score? yes, a lot of what i'm doing at the moment is working with imported midi. in which case, all imported midi tracks are assigned to Basic Staffs, which all play pianos :) yes, i could just mute them in the mixer...it looks like that's how i'...

for some stuff i'm working on, i don't really need most of the instruments in the score to be playing (or even loaded)...is there any way to just not load any sound at all for a part? having pianos playing all the unassigned parts is sort of nice, but in this case, a bit annoying...

Steve, I was talking about the internal voice sets. it shows voice options listed, but there are no sounds assigned to them in the stock n3 library :) your vienna choir should work okay. if the correct rules are not already present in notion, you should be able to create them. the EWQL choir thing i...
