I think this can be connected with that:
https://forum.noteworthycomposer.com/?topic=7344.0 (https://forum.noteworthycomposer.com/?topic=7344.0)
but let's start at the beginning.
I imported a MIDI file that's very good to hear but has no time signature, so NWC assumes 4/4.
In reality that song is in 3/4.
I changed the time for each staff, then I did an "audit bar lines".
The result? A big mess!
The biggest problem are the rests: a 4/4 rest becomes a "whole measure" (i.e. 3/4) rest...
The only solution I found is to add (via some external means) the 3/4 tempo signature to all staves in the MIDI file before importing it.
Any good idea anyone?
Import it. Add Performance Style (http://ntworthy.com/nwc2/help/MNU_ADDPERFORMSTYLE.htm): Legato to the beginning of ech staff. Add the proper Time Signature (http://ntworthy.com/nwc2/help/MNU_ADDTIMESIGNATURE.htm) to the top staff.
Export, then reimport.
This is one of those times in which I feel really idiot.
I routinely use the export-reimport trick to adjust for missing rests at the beginning of a song to have only full measures but I didn't think about using it in this case.
Thanks, Rick.
Anyway I must remember to be very careful in changing the tempo signature
(but I'm sure I'll remember it *after* getting in trouble again...)
