Those were string harmonics? Some time ago I entered the flute and bass lines for  a sonata by Francesco Mancini (not Henry’s father, as this is music from baroque London) into FM2011. Playback drove me insane as there were occasional 3 and 4 part chords. From my years as a recorder teacher I k

Yeah, but, but, you get SmartMusic integration as well! Wouldn't it be cool if they perhaps redid the playback system so if you have the expression "solo" it will automatically bring up the volume of the instrument and bring down the others? Or maybe actually listen to some of the users, say,

Playback was probably the easiest part. It's just "normal" staves that are hidden. The nice thing is if you wish to attempt this, just save the Expression and SmartShape as a library (File menu > Save Library) which you can bring into any document then. Most standard markings are a

Okay, I'll bite -- how was it done? It's certainly not simply entering the music on straight staves and then grabbing the staves and bending them. I went through the whole score in Speedy Entry and there weren't any notes showing in any of the frames. So if no notes are showing up in speedy f
