Thank you for your message. I am hoping to reproduce the arrow notation used by the composer, rather than substituting a different notational convention (which this composer has employed in other pieces). The fact that he implies a difference between a slightly lowered F & a slightly raised E

Hi Michael, It probably would have been helpful if you had provided an example (so that we can see how exactly the arrows are supposed to look like). But in the end all boils down to the possibility of replacing a standard accidental by an arbitrary markup. There's a snippet demonstrating how

Pitch inflection

2018-01-29 Thread Michael Taylor
I am transcribing sketches in which small pitch adjustments are notated using up & down arrows. As my aim is to reproduce the composer's notation as closely as possible I don't want to substitute quarter-tone symbols. Is there a simple way to insert arrows in place of accidentals? Playback is not
