Re: Rounds
Reply #7 –
I just learned how to do something new because of this thread: end with something other than the normal double bar line!
I have been writing and notating rounds lately for my choir. Here is a favourite that I was able to change the ending on. It looks great on my screen. However, when I go to print...trouble! It's probably best to keep it as a single line piece but I do like hearing the sound of the round.
I think you can keep multiple staffs, but they should be the same length. Add bars of rests at the end of the shorter staffs.
For printing, insert a Master Repeat Close with a page break just before the end of each staff. Whatever you use for the staff ending in Staff Properties won't show on the page when you print it.
I don't think the repeats work properly when they're aren't aligned staff to staff.
