Well, it actually *doesn't* work the same -- hence this thread. Obviusly, it all depends on context, of course -- I already cited a case where layers work better than V1/V2 (ties across the bar) -- but in general, I think V1/V2 should be used more often than most of the folks on this list tend to recommend, and particularly in cases where the voices branch in the middle of a measure, which requires hidden rests when you use layers/ -- David W.
