I’m arranging a large orchestral piece for a concert wind band.
I’m copying the individual string staffs onto target wind instruments before further work on the target wind instruments - say violin onto clarinets.
In the main I can eliminate the bowing arco, up bow and down bow notations when the music has been copied on to the target wind instruments, but sometimes the up bow or down bow notation sits behind a loudness dynamic and I’m having trouble selecting one from the other to delete.
Any suggestions on how to select the bowing marks whilst avoiding the dynamics eg mf which can sit above it.
I understand group and ungroup, and link and unlink functions from my PowerPoint IT knowledge but am having difficulty making them work here
secondly
having transcribed the staff from say violin to clarinet I’d like to change the loudness dynamics down say one degree. However when I do that the dynamics in the whole piece changes one level. How do I make sure that the dynamic change only applies to the staff that I’m working on?
Thank you
otherwise Dorico is brilliant!
