Transposing from Trabble to Bass clef

19 years ago

Good morning,

I have a piece of music in Noteworthy in trebble clef. I want to print off the same part in bass clef for my Tuba. I have cut / paste the entire piece onto a new staff and transposed it down by 4 semitones. However, the Ab has become Abb, same with Bb, Db, and Eb.

Have I missed some mystical point here or is my music theory somewhat lacking?

Select the entire staff
Hold the control and shift keys down
Press the Up Arrow key 12 times

G'day Phil,
may I refer you to another discussion... Perhaps it will help.

The entire thread is worth a read even if all of it is not relevant.
