Cubase 14 Score editor redundant natural accidentals

[philkaye]

In Cubase 14 Score editor, if I have an accidental like a flat on a note in one measure, the score editor adds a natural accidental symbol to the first appearance of that note in the following measure even though it is strictly speaking not necessary. I think this is sometimes called a “cautionary accidental”? Is there a way to disable these to reduce clutter? I seem to recall a setting in Dorico for this, but have not been able to find the setting in Cubase.

This behavior was talked about in this thread not long ago:

Simple piano score

I always print notes for musicians during sessions. I could decide about every detail in old editor while in Cubase 14 I feel like somebody cuts my hands Very bad for me is I can’t open my old scores in new editor. I mean scores formatted in a same way as already did in previous editor. Compere to other daws Cubase was only one to have such a good score editing possibilities. I tried new score editor for 5-6 hours and just couldn’t bring a piano midi track into clear and simple loo…

Oh yes, thanks… this quote below from Paul answers it. Please feel free to delete or close this thread:

There are many options in Dorico to reflect the many different conventions on this (this is just the first page of options):

Hopefully we’ll be able to expose some control in Cubase too.
