Title: Other Types of Clefs
Post by: Kristopher on 2008-11-28 12:15 pm
You've probably already know all of the clefs in NWC2 but what about these clefs?

I just want to fiddle with these clefs for fun. Any suggestions to putting these into NWC even though they are not used anoymore?

Errata corrige:
Chiavi in contrabbasso = Low clefs
Chiavi naturali = Natural clefs
Chiavette = High clefs (verbatim: Small clefs)

NWC can only support the  G, C, and F clef in their traditional places although any of them can be shifted up or down an octave.  First get music to sound like it is supposed to with traditional built in clefs and key signatures.  Copy everything to a new staff which you will mute.  Take out the clef and key signature (if necess.).  Set up a user font of NWCV15 or in version 2 NWC2STDA.  In the user font, the clefs are a,b, & c while the accidentals are d,e, and f.  Place them where needed at the beginning of each staff system.

NWC2STDA.ttf as a User Font will need a pointsize of ~5/4 the size of System Metrics. See my comments <here> (https://forum.noteworthycomposer.com/?topic=6148.msg40996#msg40996).

Here is an example of the baritone clef, common in the 18th century. Mozart used it, instead of bass clef.

Man, I've forgot all about the NWCV15 and NWC2STDA font!
BTW, Thanks.
