Condensing Rhythmic dilemma

Quickly looking at your other Manual Condensing Changes makes me think there might be an easier way to get what you want.

E.G.
The one at bar 27 for the Alto Saxes. What is its purpose?

FWIW if you’re hoping it will condense into one voice automatically, it won’t: Alto 2 is missing the mp dynamic. Removing the condensing change and adding the missing dynamic produce the desired result (plus it’s correct!)

The one at bar 77: I’m assuming you just want the music in the previous 8 bars to be in one voice? If so, reseting the condensing is enough. There’s no need to make any Notation Options changes within the Manual Condensing Change.

Select the Manual Condensing Change signpost, simply tick the Alto Saxes.
