hoping for some advice / tips from anyone who has used this plugin
recently. i haven't used this in a long time and wanted to check how
it works with 2010.
i'm working on a score (in C) with 3 staves in the doc for each wind
and 4331 for brass. using the oboe as an example, the composer has
used all three staves in the score in various configurations. so,
the 3 staves in the SC are named and contain:
staff 1, group name "1.2." = ob1+2, sometimes only ob1, sometimes only ob2
staff 2, group name "3." = ob3, sometimes ob2+3, sometimes only ob2
staff 3, staff name (no group defined) "3." = only ob3, but only
contains music when needed in SC
is this going to work properly?
does TGTool recognize the staff group names as well as the text
expressions "a2" "1.2." etc.? or should i go through the score and
add "1.2." as needed, even if the staff group name on each page
indicates what instruments play on that system? if i need to add
more, should i add these expressions every system? every left page?
i also hope to only add 2 staves for some instrument groups instead
of 3, i.e. leave ob3, bsn3, tpt3[inC], tbn3 linked. is there a way to
make the part explosion use (add to / alter) the existing 3rd staff
for the 3rd part when exploding? this way there could be fewer parts
that are not linked.
and how does this work in large string sections? there are some
passages where on each quarter in a measure another instrument
enters, e.g. on beat 1-4, the instruments playing are vlnI.1, 1.2.,
1.-3., 1.-4.
does this work as well in explosion?
