Just to clarify, are we talking about playING techniques, or playBACK techniques? The former is created in write mode, and is a visual indication in the score, which links to a playBACK technique.
Which speaks to the need for improved clarification that you already pointed out.
the playING techniques of course incorporate playBACK techniques. Thatâs why the PlayING Techniques from the Engrave menu (completely the wrong place for it imho but never mind) is the best place to create new ones so they appear in the score and there they can be linked to the appropriate playBACK techniques which is what you see in the Expression Maps and what you see in the tooltips when hovering with the mouse over the PlayING techniques in Write mode. Donât worry, @Axel , it took me a while before I understood all this.
Thanks a lot !
Indeed it is very confusing! Hopefully all of this will be clarified and unified in v4!
hmm⌠I will have to learn what an endpoint is 
Thanks dko22, I started to tell myself that I was totally stupid
You said âthe best placeâ⌠Would there be another ?!
I expect youâve already worked this out but the screenshot below shows that the playBACK techniques are part of the playING technique dialog but it doesnât work the other way round.
To answer your question directly, you could create a keyboard shortcut for Engraveâ> Playing techniques shortcuts but why botherâŚ
How much of all this will be addressed with the initial release of v4 is anyoneâs guess. The thing is, there nothing wrong with the functionality in my view, itâs really just ensuring that the terminology is clear and clearly documented.
Itâs now clear⌠thankâs to you !
thanks for information

I tried to learn to play the organ briefly at school which was a very BAD idea as I had more than enough problems putting two hands together before adding feet. However this is a remarkably compelling work for an organ agnostic. Certainly more interesting than the endless output of a certain composer beginning with B (now he hides under a rock⌠
)
Thanks and LOL ! Iâm agnostic as well, but I love organ
for his safety, he better stay under the aforementioned rock for a while, lol.
themâs fightinâ words!
carefully chosen â I know there are a lot of Baroque fans hereabouts.
I think you know this (hence your joke to begin with) but for the benefit of anyone who is not at all familiar with the wonderful world that is the pipe organ:
Bach is to the organ, what Webern is to Serialism, or Haydn is to the String Quartet, Wagner or Verdi to Opera, or Beethoven to the Symphony⌠you simply couldnât imagine the genre at all had these towering greats not come along⌠Obviously organ music existed before Bach (and the symphony before Beethoven), but he brought it to such a new perfection and level of virtuosity that he created a whole new foundation upon which everything that came after him now stands.
Iâll just leave you with one of my favorite advent postludes: his fugue over the cantus firmus of Nun Komm der Heiden Heiland.
whatever made you think I was referring to Bach?
Anyway I might well agree about Bach and the organ and indeed Webern to serialism. I would put different names for all the other categories (in fact one name in a different category). But there are other places for such discussions.
I will soon post my toccata on this wonderful theme !

Is it possible to have an organ âplayerâ that picks up a different instrument? For example, the player could hold an oboe and a flute, then swap between them. I know this doesnât allow multiple stops, nor does it work (probably) with different instrument sounds on different voicesâŚ
