CHAPTER 16<br />

MIDI and NIFF<br />

272<br />

In the Musician textbox, you can change the track’s name to something else. If<br />

<strong>Igor</strong> <strong>Engraver</strong> is able to recognise an instrument name, it proposes that name in<br />

the Instrument textbox; otherwise you must define it yourself. Note that the<br />

instrument you specify in this textbox must be spelled exactly the same way as<br />

the instrument’s name in the Instrument library window.<br />

The Staff option lets you set the number of staves that will be used for the musician<br />

in question. Depending on whether you want one or two staves, you will<br />

have different options in the pop-up menu below. Beneath the pop-up menu<br />

there is text giving additional information about the settings.<br />

If there is no MIDI information in one of the recognised MIDI tracks, <strong>Igor</strong><br />

<strong>Engraver</strong> will suggest that the track should be removed. When all of the tracks<br />

have got corresponding Instrument names, press Apply. If one of the instruments<br />

specified cannot be used, its textbox will be cleared. When all of the tracks have<br />

got instrument names, the MIDI file can be imported (provided you do not want<br />

to change the settings of the other panes). When the file is imported you will<br />

find musicians named after the specific instruments. However, there will not be<br />

any layouts created for you; instead, you may decide yourself what layouts you<br />

need, and then create them in the usual manner.
