Igor Engraver Manual

APPENDIX A
364
Since the number in the diagram above is 1, there must be at least two
instruments named “Clarinet in B flat”. In case there is only one musician,
this number will not be used, and is therefore set to 0 by default.
Untransposed:
This diagram displays the instruments foundation note as untransposed,
in relation to C. The notehead of the diagram can be dragged up and
down, and that way the transposition of the instrument can be altered.
Score transposition:
This diagram displays the instrument’s score transposition foundation
note, in realation to C. The notehead of the diagram can be dragged up
and down, and that way the transposition of the instrument can be
altered. If Suppress score transposition is checked, the key signature is not
shown in score layouts.
Part transposition:
This diagram displays the instrument’s score transposition foundation
note, in realation to C. The notehead of the diagram can be dragged up
and down, and that way the transposition of the instrument can be
altered. If Suppress part transposition is checked, the key signature is not
shown in part layouts.
Play microtones:
If checked, the instrument may be able to play microtones (quarter tones,
sixth tones, etc.)
Can swell on single note:
If checked, the instrument is able to perform a crescendo, a decrescendo,
and so on, on a single note.
Inertia:
This textbox defines how fast the instrument can play trills, grace notes,
and the like. A setting of 0.5 means playback will be twice as fast; a setting
of 2 means playback will be of half normal speed. This is very useful
when defining playback of tubas and other instruments that are not able
to produce fast trills.
Pan Angle:
This textbox determines the panning of the instrument: -90 means due
left; 0 means middle; 90 means due right.
Reverb:
This textbox determines the reverb amount to be used for the instrument,
provided the synthesizer used is capable of producing reverb.
