Treble Clef Only

How do I change the notation view to display all notes in only the treble clef? I don't want to use the bass clef.
Thanks
Olushola

because the treble clef only goes down so low, if you go into the bass range with whatever you are doing that is midi related, it will go into the bass clef. I'm pretty sure there's no way to change this. try playing your parts up higher for the sake of scoring. it is a general musical issue: if you were to show all notes in the treble clef, you'd have so many ledger lines under the treble staff that it would become insanely difficult to read the music. that is why the grand staff comes into play when scoring parts.

Notes between Bass clef and Treble clef in Score Editor?

I'm trying to enter the notes between the Bass clef and Treble clef in the Score Editor, but Logic's defaut settings won't allow it.
Basically I need to enter the notes C, D, E and F, right above the bass clef. Technically speaking I would need 2 more ledger lines on top of the Bass clef.
Please help.

Hi,
set the bass clef to another MIDI channel. Maybe treble MIDI ch 1, bass MIDI ch2. Now select the notes you want to show up in the bass clef and change their channel to 2.
In the Notation Edtor, select CTRL-ALT-CMD-S. There you can edit the properties of each separate staff. Scroll to the right: The "easy" way is to set another split point between bass and treble clef. The other way is to assign separate channels.

How do I change the midi staff style from piano (i.e. bass and treble clef) to a drum score?

Is there a way to change the staff style in Logic Pro 9 from piano to drums?
In the score window I have tried selecting layout then staff styles... then clicking the downward arrow next to piano and changing to drums (but there is no box to select apply changes), I then back out and it still displays and uses a piano score.
Also is there some sort of setting I can apply so that Logic acts with some Logic... i.e. if I'm using a drum audio instrument then the score editor automatically changes to a drum score, similarily with bass and bass clef?

If I understand you write, you are looking for remapping of the incoming MIDI messages.
So your MIDI Drum Kit is connected to your Mac and sends MIDI messages
A few question:
What MIDI Note message is your drum kit sending when you hit the kick drum, or lets ask, what note "should" it send? Record a MIDI Region while playing your kick drum. Open the Piano Roll Editor and look up what MIDI note that is.
Can you change the assignment on your Drum Kit, i.e. set what MIDI note is send by each drum kit peice?
What MIDI Instrument are you using for the drums in GarageBand?
Do you know what MIDI note is assigned to the Snare sound (D1 ?)
A the end it is about matching the sending note (send from the kick drum) to the expected receiving note (assigned to the snare sound). Changin Cable wouldn't do anything. Either you have to change the receiving mapping (hard to do in GB), or change the sending not from the Kick Drum (should be possible).
Hope that helps

Different staff styles, same region

Is this possible? For example, in the same region bars 1- 8 would be piano style, then 9-16 would be treble clef only?

a track can have as many different regions on it all with their own settings. when you come to print the part from those regions it will appear as one long part. in fact, this is the best way to use the score feature because it makes it easy to have just a small section of the score have certain properties, for example, a polyphonic part with rests, within a part that is not normally polyphonic.
all you have to do is cut the region where you want the different score style to begin and end, and then simply assign it. when you come to print the whole part it will look the way it should.

How to change the position of a notation from treble to bass clef?

hi there,
i am trying to print out a score from GB '08 that looks more like a piano score (with red hand notes on the treble clef and left hand notes on the bass clef) but can't seem to find a way to do it. can anyone help?
thanks!

thanks, christoph!
but it seems when i click on the clef signs, it only gives me three options
treble
treble and bass
bass
(this is displayed in the track editing section at the bottom of the window)
maybe i need more specifically of the location of the "piano" option.
really appreciate it!

Apple TV plays music from Itunes for 1 second only

The Apple TV sees all my music from Itunes and I can select any of the tracks but when I play one the music only plays for 1 second before stopping. Sometimes I'll hear the 1 second of music, sometimes not. I've reset all of my settings on the Apple TV. Music plays from Itunes out of my laptop when I have the device set to computer. If I select Apple TV as the device, the song wont play and just hangs, but on the television bottom left corner it will show the track information as though it was going to play for one second before it changes to a blank treble clef image labled "untitled". Any ideas?

If I play it from the ATV Menu : The Apple TV sees all my music from Itunes and I can select any of the tracks. When I play a track the music plays for 1 second and then stops. Sometimes I'll hear the 1 second of music, sometimes not.
If I play it from Itunes via airplay : The song wont play at all and just hangs, but on the bottom left corner of the TV (that the apple tv is connected to) it will show the track information (Album image + song name) as though it was going to play, but one second later it changes the track information to a blank note image labled "untitled" and no music.

Notes below middle c always display in the bass clef.

Is there a way to get a note to display in the treble clef that is recorded in the bass clef? Any time that I record a song, GB places any note played below middle c in the bass clef. When sheet music is desired for a vocal arrangement, your alto note should be displayed in the treble clef. Can anyone help? Thanks.

unfortunately, GB's notation is very limited.
however if you click on the treble or bass clef you can select just a treble clef from the popUp menu that appears.

How can i transpose to Bb while still in Bass Clef?

every Bb option is in the treble clef, and i need a trombone option. if someone can tell me how i'd really appreciate it

Hi
Several ways you could do this, basically involving making a copy of a Staff style ( or making a new one) then setting up clef and transposition as you need: fo rexample
Select a "Trumpet in Bb" style, then duplicate it:
Open in theStaff Style Editor, choose the right Clef, and any transpositions you may need:
Rename

Clef limitation in score mode

I am using Garage Band '09 with OS X Yosemite. I'd like to have my piano students play their original compositions on my midi keyboard and have garageband notate it in score mode. A huge limitation is the middle C cutoff between treble and bass clefs. We need the ability to notate below middle C in treble clef and above middle C in bass clef. I cannot find a solution to this anywhere. Please tell me it is possible. Thanks!
Laurie

Hi
You can set the key a number of ways, including:
In the Score, drag the key Signature in from the Partbox onto the Stave
Global Tracks:Signatures (double click to enter)
Lists:Signature
etc

How do I fix problem with linked and cropped image frames not printing properly when spanning pages?

We are using InDesign (ID) to develop and print church bulletins which contain a combination of text frames and graphics. One of the graphic types we use are TIF files which are high-resolution scans of hymns.
A hymn usually has a combination of the musical score, plus the lyrics - with many verses., so the modular structure is 'staff' composed of a treble clef, followed by verses, followed by a base clef.
If the example above had 6 verses instead of one, we would crop the image by adjusting the frame, so that the treble clef and the desired verses showed through the frame.
We would then copy and link the frame - piggy back - adjusting the next content window etc....so we build a custom version of the music as a series of linked frames - each with the same base image, but a different frame position.
So this works fine, when we do this on a single page, but when we then add a 'last staff' at the top of the following page, we encounter print problems with some output devices.
Imagine a two-page spread, with a full page of music on the left, and the last staff (treble clef, verses, base clef) unit as a separately linked frame at the top of the right page of the spread.
It displays correctly, and will print individually as pages correctly, but when we print it as a booklet, the last frame drops out and we have blank space.
I can print the document to PDF and it works fine, but if I print it to a copier or laser printer I get drop out.
It is inconsistent.
Previews are always okay. Individual page prints are okay, but when you print the entire document, the last frame in this kind of linked series gets blanked.
If we create and name the image differently, and call it in as a new image - (not linked to the previous), but it is still a large image that is cropped to a small piece, then it doesn't print.
If we save the last frame as a different image type (take the TIFF file into photoshop, crop it and save it as a jpg - so it is only the 'snippet') and then import it, it works fine.
So my question to you InDesigners....is there some setting or tip or trick I need to know to be able to link a series of frames with the same base image, but different crops and make it span across two pages properly.
Or do we need to play this game of crop and trim the image so that it doesn't drop out?
Any thoughts, advice, direction would be gratefully received!

I did a lot of such hymn things in the past, but I was alway working on the scans in Photoshop, like adjusting, retouching spots and cropping. And I was always seperating those images to be more flexible so I never run into such a problem.
I am always scanning in a higher quality level than I would need, I scan it in color, this allows me to eliminate paper color easily, even if I need 1-bit images at the end, I do it in color, so I can also turn the image.
I did once run into a similar problem with a scan I have got from a copier-scanner machine (it was not a song). But saving as PSD resolved my problem.
So I would suggest: Open your files in Photoshop, resave them as PSD files and use those instead. If you use 1-bit images (which is fine for this type of images) you should use a resolution equal to the printer's resolution.

Score staff problems with keyboard input

Hi. I am trying to input midi keyboard notes, in real time, into Logic Pro. This works fine. However, I'd also like to create a reasonable, normal score from those notes. The problem is that the notes are divided between the bass and treble clefs. This isn't at all readable when, for example, a chord played with the right hand is say, an A minor chord with the C note being middle C. The 3 notes should all appear in the treble clef.
When I try to move the note from the bass clef to the treble clef, I get messages that I need poly voicing and when I follow the help files to add another voice, I get a new clef. The only way I've been able to figure out how to do this is to record the left hand and right hand parts in different tracks, separately, which is quite cumbersome.
This ought to be easy! What am I missing?

i have to say i have created extremely complex and sophisticated concert music scores using logic. it can be done despite a myriad of problems and bugs. it's great advantage is flexibility and speed, there is nothing wrong with what it should be able to do, it just trips you up at the very last hurdle - hugely frustrating because it gets you there well ahead of the game.
i can tell you through the grapevine that improvements and upgrading are on the way for the score editor. it is very useful to have the likes of all the people on this thread posting because score users are under represented on the forum. logic developers don't realize how many of its users depend on its score features, because most of us don't post.
now some important tips:
- you can set a default score style in the arrange window in the paramters box when you click on a midi instrument track. that means whenever you create a midi region it will be in that score style.
- being able to select score styles for different regions is a good thing!!!! this way you can speed up your work flow incredibly - way way faster than sibelius or finale.
Rests have to be written instead of automatically appearing.
rubbish! you can set the rests to appear automatically. use differing score styles.
I wanted to say that I am hugely disappointed with apple's neglect of the score windo
now there i am with you brother.
if you want to see what can be achieved using score in logic, even in the state it's in you can have a look at a sample of my violin concerto i have at my website:

HOW DO I GET TO PRINT PARTS OF ARTICLES?

And you just like helping people?
That is just the way this forum works - users get help from other users and learn from others and like to contribute if they see they can help.
My latest challenge was typing in melodies and chords of songs I'd written on the piano. But using the Musical Typing in register C3 I inserted all the notes by playing on the imac keyboard (and written in the treble clef). The only problem is you cant insert the chords at the same time. Now I have an empty bass clef, which requires chords be inserted in register C2 and I dont know yet how to do that.
To fill in the chords: Join a melody track and a bass track, like this:
- Create a new software track and record the chords separately with musical typing.
- Create a new track and copy your melody loops there (just as backup, if something goes wrong)
- Do the same with the track containing the chords.
- Then select all loops in the copies of the melody track and the copy of the chords track and select from the main menu
Edit -> Join.
Now you should have a track that contains the bass as well as the melody and both staffs should be filled in the track editor, so you can print both at the same time.
However, there will be some notes assigned to the wrong staff - very low melody notes will appear in the bass cleff, very high chord notes will appear in the melody cleff - and I don't see how you could fix that in GB.
Good luck

How to convert piano notation to alto sax notation?

I'm still new to Logic Express so bear with me.
I've written a song with alto sax and I'd like to print the notation for a live sax player. However, the sax is a transposing instrument and reads the treble clef as Eb. Is it possible to change the key of the clefs for proper notation?

Yes this is possible.
I won't pretend to be an expert, but open the piano roll, above the keyboard are the words 'Global Tracks' click on the arrow to expand this tree. Expand the 'signature' tree and to the right above the actual midi area you will see by default the 'c' key. You can click on this and change it to what you want. The 'score' editor will reflect this.
I am not sure if that is what you need. What I cannot find is how to take a score and simply say - transpose a tone and a half (which is what e flat is to c) and it does it for you. All you are doing here is simply changing the key which is not the same as transposing.
There is a transposing option in the top left of the arrange window (where the 'loop' check box is) but that is only in whole tones it seems I cannot work out how to add 'half' values. Unless I have read this completely wrong. But changing this will not alter the score, so you may need a combination of the two things.
Perhaps someone can be more concise

Separate Display Quantizations for the same part in Notation

I'm having a hard time with something that seems like it would be easy to fix. How can I set up a part in the notation editor and use one display quantization setting for say, bars 3 and 4, and another display quantization setting for bars 5 and 6. (For instance, if I wanted eighth notes in one and sixteenths in another). I remember reading somewhere that you need to split the measures into separate regions, because display quantization can only be applied to a region as a whole, but when I do that another treble clef or entire bracket appears in the midst of my score in the score editor. How can I get rid of this extraneous clef appearing? I know that you can adjust individual quantizations when working with the actual MIDI events, but I only want to change the display quantization.
Also, what workflows do you all use to deal with Logic's over-indulgence in cut away scores? I know you could create a bunch of empty regions on top of your project's and then merge them, but I believe then you would lose your display quantization (related to above).
Thanks!

hey keith i just saw your reply and further question - there are two things that would help:
1 - if you are just wanting to creating multi rests, then the quantize tool is not correct.. you need to drag the little sign in the Inspector which looks like a multi rest and calculate the open bars eg.. if it matters to you that the instrumentalist needs to be able to count in 8 or 4 or 16 bar sections then make sure that you have a double bar line breaking up the blank bars, That way when you drag a multirest it will go up to the double bar line
On the other hand you might be writing for hot orchestral musicians who have no problem counting 63 and a half bars before they come back in in which case you can have one long multi rest.. does this make sense
2 -for the 'cutaway' thing you are talking about - I think I know what you mean .. a big blank space on the part where the system stops. I like doing this too .. and the way I do it is to just leave a big gap in the linear placement of the regions .. say your first part goes from bar 1 to bar 32 then you want a cutaway.. leave a gap of 4 bars and then start the next region from bar 36. When you look at the score in Print View.. you will see the gap
The only problem with this method is that it messes up the bar numbers .. as logic will still think that the bars exist.
ZZZ - Hello Score Editor fiends and programmers: official request for a new Score Editor feature
Re Assign Bar numbers: this would enable the user to name the bar numbers according to the logic of the part/score ... and not be tied to logic's sequence to crank out mindlessly linearly the bar numbers
An idea feature would be to insert a 'memory hole' - so the user could over ride the sequencer.
This combined with Johannes Pritchls little used system where by the sequencer could follow repeats and signs and DS and to Codas... would make Logic Score Editor a MUCH MORE BRILLIANT tool
PS not forgetting Global Rehearsal letters .. my old bug bear

How can you change the location of the iCloudDrive folder from it's default location assigned when downloaded.

I recently downloaded the iCloudDrive folder for PC to keep my files up to date amongst my devices. I want to move the iCloudDrive folder from my default location "Jordan" to another folder I have saved on my PC. However, when I do so, the folder looses it's internet capabilities. It therefore does not automatically upload to my cloud storage, files that I add to the relocated folder. This function only seems to work when the folder is placed in "my personal folder": "Jordan". How can I move the iCloudDrive folder to a different location on my PC AND continue using it with internet functionality?!

You cannot control, how the printed score will look. It is not supposed to be a tool for musical typesetting - only a convenience to be able to check your midi tracks quickly. You cannot even control, how the notes will be assigned to the staffs with the bass cleffs or treble clefs.
Use other programs for better typesetting your musical scores, e.g.Finale.
