Hello friends,
Regarding the Score Editor.
I´m struggling with arranger mode. The user manual explains it very poorly. I´d like to know how to:
Create “to segno” jumps more than once and from/to different places in the score.
Use Volta endings for 3rd, 4th, etc repetitions of the same range
If you could provide a music XML export, it would be awesome, so I could see a working example.
For instance, I´d like to emulate the following “arranger chain”, where every letter is a range of bars. I would like to write the score for every letter only once in the score. How would you do it?
intro |A | B | A | C | D | A | B | A | C || ->to segno->
Segno: | E || → Da Capo al coda
Coda: | F || Fine
The problem is, that I used Volta1 at B and Volta2 at C and the ABAC pattern doesnt repeat the second time around. Instead of ABAC ABAC, it does ABAC ABC. Here’s the test I created:
Unfortunately it wouldn’t be possible for this specific example.
And sorry, I misread your first post, I thought you were trying to achieve this using the Arranger Track.
What happens with the Arranger Mode in the Score Editor is that it executes repeat signs only once! So when it returns the second time it considers them as already done, and doesn’t play them back again.
Anyway, as there is currently no jump function for To Coda or To Segno, your example wouldn’t totally work using exclusively the Arranger Mode.
At least I didn’t find a trick … for the moment!
I think that as a part of Cubase, the Score Editor should be used in conjunction with all other sequencing tools. Arranger mode shouldnt even exist, in my opinion.
