Hello fellow notation nerds
I have a line of 8th notes that I would like to turn into 2 16ths per 8th and keep the pitches the same for a book I’m writing for my students.
I’d like to be able to display it two ways
- 8ths with doubled beams (as is common in music literature)
- Actually printed 16ths.
Dorico is so powerful I know there’s a quick way to do this.
Indeed there is!

yah buddy! that works great.
Now how do I display that as 8ths with a second beam? You know how violinist often just have that doubled beam but it’s written as 8ths with like a mini second beam on there?
Not as a single tremolo on eighths, though?
