Percussion voicing question

Hi there, I’ve got two percussion instruments (amongst others) within a kit, and I like having them on separate voices (as designated in the kit editor) to allow for separate articulations when the notes appear simultaneously, but then there are more rhythmic moments where you would want them to appear as if on a single voice… Any advice would be appreciated to clean this up! The pictures should give an idea of the issue.

(You’ll see in picture 1 the voices are separate which ruins bar 2, but in the second example I can’t have a staccato (for example) on the top note but not the bottom note…)


You can override the voice used for individual notes in a percussion kit:

Ah this is fantastic thanks!
