Auditing accidentals 2006-07-08 01:53 pm When editing imported MIDI files to make performing scores, it is sometimes necessary to impose a new key signature (without transposing notes). An example would be a piece of music with no key signature (C major), which indicates A's as A#. Probably these should have been notated as Bflat and the correct solution would be to place a key signature of F major at the beginning and use "Audit Enharmonics" to remove the spurious sharps. A problem arises however if any un-flattened B's were present since (accidentals in the key of F) now become unintentionally flattened.Maybe I am missing something, but if not, a User Script to locate and apply natural signs to all such notes would seem to be the answer. Wish I were better at PHP!Anyone got any better ideas? Andrew Shepperd Quote Selected
