And since Robert's Copyists Helper doesn't fully support linked
parts (MM's fault, not his), you lose the ability to have the
*current* instrument name displayed in the page header -- i.e.,
for a part that begins on flute but switches to soprano sax in the
middle of page 2, you would want "MY BRILLIANT CHART - Reed 1
(Fl.) p.2", but then "MY BRILLIANT CHART - Reed 2 (S. Sx.) p.3".
The last example is interesting, but something I would probably
never do. "Reed 1" identifies the part (did you really intend to
mix Reed 1 and Reed 2 in the same part?).
No. I meant "Reed 1" both times.
For a reminder I would just put the instrument name in parentheses
at the top of the page, since I might have several instrument
changes on any given page.
Yes, that's what I was suggesting.
The point is that if you start the rehearsal with "let's take it from
bar 300," the player doesn't have to flip back several pages and find
the most recent instrument change indication. They can just look at
the top of the page, then check to see if there are any instrument
change indications between the top of the page and bar 300.
Cheers,
