I have spent hours trying to d
I have spent hours trying to do the following one note at a time. There's got to be a better way.
I am preparing midi files for for 2 choir (Lots of music!) that are needed to members to learn their parts. I start with a midi file I've created with OCR music scanning software. The originals have two staves, treble and base clefts, representing 4 to 8 voice parts (depending on whether a part or parts divide - like tenor divides into 1st and 2nd tenors). My job is to divide the those staves into individual staves for each part. [Then, (This part I can do easily), I create leaning midi files for each part the emphasizes the one part over the others in playback.] The attached midi is a typical example. The first staff has Soprano and Alto; the second staff has Tenor and Bass. I need to create a 4 stave piece, one staff for each part. Here's what I've been doing (I'll explain my difficulties after). 1 - I clone the staves, so that I have 4, 2 treble and 2 bass. 2 - I select the first staff. 3 - I select from the [Region] menu [non-melody notes]. Deleting these leaves melody notes, soprano. 4 - I select the second staff. 5 - I select from the [Region] menu [top melody notes]. Delete them leaving the alto notes. 6 - Same as the above for tenor and bass. The problems are: 1 - in many places the parts merge to sing the same notes. It's hard to edit back in the notes after the fact. Is there a way to edit the unison notes to be duplicates of the same note, one for each part, before I clone the staves? 2 - When I have divisis, a part dividing into 1st and 2nd (eg: tenor into 1st and 2 tenor) and merging to one again all over the place it becomes unmanageable for me as the steps above do not work. The number of titles I have to do this for make note by note edits impossible in the time i have to do them. Please help me automate this better.
