NOTION Music Forum

I see that Notion for P iPad now has vocal score capability which is fabulous.. But some obvious clefs are missing.

For example when doing a capella vocal music it is very common to use a Treble clef with a 8 under (indicating sung octave lower than written) for Tenor and "Melody" parts.

For example You might have a
- Tenor Parts with Treble Clef and 8 Under indicating sung an octave lower than written
- Melody or Lead voice - Ditto
- Baritone would be say Bass Clef
- Bass would be Bass Clef.


This is very common is Male only a cappella (Such as barbershop or some do-whop styles) actually similar applies to female only a capella too.

There are probably 20+ clefs available to musicians to use .. It would be nice it they were "all" available within Notion?

Please update the clefs in Notion to allow these variations - or tell me how I can do it if it is available as I cant see the option in the Vocal staves I have just tried to set up.

Yes please. The one I need most is the ovtave-dropped treble clef, which is the most commnnly used today for tenor parts (the one with the little 8 under it described above).

Please, please?

Totally agree..

If anyone else thinks or supports this request then write that support here and maybe Notion will take more notice and add the enhancement quicker

And also send in a feature request to the tech support people -- often they take such requests a bit more seriously than "me too" requests in their forum, although I don't know if this applies to the Notion people or not. I know that with Sibelius and Finale, it's important to make the request directly to the tech support people.

Still waiting for the missing clefs. Notion for the iPad is seriously inhibited for my work as I do a lot of vocal scoring and these missing clefs are stopping me using Notion more.

I am getting quite frustrated!!

I am also having the same problem. Right now I'm using soprano, alto, bass and V for vocal, but changing V to T so at least it looks right. Unfortunately, it plays back an octave up. They should consider making this in a choral version and an instrumental version. Many of us choral people don't need a woodwind section or guitar TAB. They could add the bits we need and charge $10 more for it; I'd be okay with that (if they can ever make it print right.)

It's great to see that orangeilla again, Steve! You've been missed over on the Sibelius group. Did you abandon the program or just the group?
