Newbie struggles!! 18 years ago Howdy all you cyber-music types!I am fairly new to Noteworthy but a keyboard player and electronic designer. I am in the process of building a Calliope with a Midi interface and chose Noteworthy as my music editing program.I have downloaded a nice collection of Midi music and am trying to massage them into a suitable form for the Calliope (such as a piano score). Unfortunately, the majority of nice Midi pieces seem to have ten zillion staves and I am having a duce of a time condensing them down to a single Treble and Bass stave. I'd hate to have to transcribe all the pieces from sheet music - I am inherently lazy ;-)Is there any way, when importing or editing a piece of music to combine or merge two staves into one without copying every note?Thanks folks!Dianne Quote Selected
Re: Newbie struggles!! Reply #1 – 18 years ago I believe that there is a User Tool written to do just this, but I don't know what it's called.Anyways, to use a user tool, you'd need to sign up for the NWC2 beta.Sorry that I don't know what the name of the user tool is. Most likely someone else will post it. Quote Selected

Reply #3 – 18 years ago I've had good luck with this process:mute all, then unmute the staves you want to mergeadd playing style: Tenuto to each of these stavesmake the MIDI channel the same for each staff to be mergedSave as: Type 0 MIDI fileOpen the MIDI file created in the last stepSee:Merging Staffs for a full discussion.
