Thanks Mike.

Here in the UK, they seem to be in a rut of following scientific/medical advice. Trouble is all scientific  / medical advice is different between countries.  Even in the UK, we have 4 Chief medical officers for example (England, Ireland, Scotland and wales).

They are now suggesting that those who have reached an age of 70 or more should stay at home for 4 months.


But we seem to be plodding along.

Keep well everybody.

I edited it because when I went back and checked it - it wasn't true.  It was better to score it out rather than delete it.

The confusing issue is that the auto backups give you a series of files going back in time.

The autosave, just gives you one file that will be there if your machine crashes out for some reason and you have not saved . (As far as I can see. ) Once you have a current save, then there is no longer an autosave file in the folder. This is what confused me at first because I was checking after saving.

AAs far as I remember, if you have your back up files folder the same as your autosave files folder, then it doesn't work.
For some reason they have to be different folders. Sorry, I know that doesn't help you.
Not sure that there is anything else I can suggest.

I prepare rehearsal parts for my choir all the time.

Here is a rundown in it's basic form, which you can build on and add your own style.

Starting off with a nwc music file, generally you will have four voice parts (SATB) and some form of accompaniment.

So my process is this ;
Reduce all of the parts to  much lesser volume .   So by default, each part/instrument will be at 127
I would reduce all of these to about 60
save the nwc file as your master file.
For each voice (S, A, T and B  or more if you have for example SSAATTBB) do the following.
1. Change the volume on the voice to about 120 so that the one voice is at 10 and the remainder is at 60.
2. Remove all dynamics from that voice and then add an FFF marking at measure 1 for that voice.
3. Remove all MPC volume instructions from that voice.
Save the nwc file as name-voice.nwc
Repeat this for all the voices that you wish to make rehearsal files for.

Now, you will now have a voice file for a specific voice where the voice part will be enhanced over and above the other voices and the accompaniment.

Repeat this process for the remaining voice parts using the master file that you created earlier as your starting point.

Now, the thing is that you can now give these out to your choristers, and tell them do download the NoteWorthy Viewer or send it to them if you know that their email will accept executables.

The thing about the NoteWorthy Viewer is that ;

1. It is free
2. If the chorister has trouble singing, for example, a run, NoteWorthy Viewer will allow you to slow down the tempo without degrading the pitch.
3. If they position the cursor at what they consider to be a difficult portion to sing, they can just hit play at that point and then, at the end of that section, just press play again and it will re-start again at the point where the cursor was originally positioned.

The above is only the basis of what I so. There are many other things that you may decide you can add into this to help your choristers.  This is something that you will develop over time and usage - but the basis is here.

HTH

Place a  marker (key @)  before the note/chord - then select the box articulations.

Position the marker at the point where you want the articulations.

Not sure - but I think this is what you want.

But I'm guessing since I wasn't quite sure from your description.

If you look in your Noteworthy directory (programs not Noteworthy files) you will find a directory called "Setups"
In there you will find an executable for the last Noteworthy program you installed. Use this to install on your new machine.
The viewer you can install from the internet.

I think this is the easiest route.

Do you use page up/down from the numeric keyboard and if so, have you switched num lock on?

I have been attempting to complete a shephard's tone file with nwc for years.

I have always tried to do it using pitch bend and when the range of pitch bend increased from two tones, I thought I was in with a real chance.  (you should have seen my original attempt which made use of Fred's method of overlapping  glissandos with appropriate volume controls). But alas no. I'm not happy with any of my results.

Every so often, I shall continue trying.

Nice effort Maurizio - appreciated.
