Whilst I normally like keeping things as separate as possible, the only
time I would separate the notes and the dynamics would be as a shortcut
when setting multistaff pieces. Most of the music I set is multistaff,
but the instruments often play different dynamics. Very little time
would be saved, and things would just get confusing.
Using Point 'n' Click speeds things up when I'm making all those 'little
adjustments' when things aren't quite right.
