You might think being a musician is a good way to get away from graphic design problems, but unfortunately software like Sibelius relies on fonts to display notation. If you know why those Reprise fonts sometimes disable themselves, please send me an email or comment below.īeing a graphic artist as well, I know that fonts are notorious for becoming corrupt, conflicting with other fonts, and generally being a hassle to manage. I don’t know why this error seems to reoccur. I’ve had to run the fix a couple times now. The error shouldn’t pop up this time, however, it may happen again in the future. If you enabled all the “missing” fonts, you should be good to go. Lastly, close Font Book and reopen Sibelius. Going from Sibelius 7+ to NOTION 5 via MusicXML and then going from NOTION 5 back to Sibelius 7+ will not be exact in every respect, since there are differences in the music notation formatting among these two applications, but it will be reasonably close, and unless you have advanced engraving requirements, you should be able to do everything in NOTION 5 without needing to switch to Sibelius 7+ for advanced engraving. Later, if you want to use Sibelius 7+ for advanced engraving, you can export the music notation from NOTION 5 in MusicXML format and then import it to Sibelius 7+, where you can make adjustments and do additional engraving work. This will make sense after you do it a few times, and it is the best way and the easiest way to achieve the goal. The Alto Sax is nice, but I decided to change it to a Tenor Sax, and the following screen captures show how this is done. įor example, I did an experiment where I created a simple Jazz Combo score in Sibelius 7+ inputted a few bars of quarter notes exported the Sibelius 7+ score to uncompressed MusicXML and then imported the uncompressed MusicXML to NOTION 5, which created a new NOTION 5 score that has an Alto Sax and some other Jazz Combo instruments. You will need to check each instrument assignment in the NOTION 5 score, and if the instrument you desired is not the instrument which was assigned by default, you can change the instrument manually using one of the NOTION 5 Score Setup choices. Now, the music notation from your Sibelius 7+ score is in a NOTION 5 score, and the various instruments will be assigned to their default values, which should map to the same or similar instruments that were used in your Sibelius 7+ score.

Īfter you export the music notation from Sibelius 7+ in uncompressed MusicXML format, you will import the MusicXML into NOTION 5, which will create a new NOTION 5 score with a staff for each instrument you exported in uncompressed MusicXML format from Sibelius 7+. Sibelius 7+ will export MusicXML, and it does this in either of two ways, (a) uncompressed and (b) compressed, where for this strategy you will want to export uncompressed MusicXML from Sibelius 7+. However, there is another way to do what I think you want to do, where the result is the same but the strategy is different. It is not possible to enter notation in Sibelius and then ReWire to NOTION in order to use NOTION as the audio engine and the source of instrument samples in this way. Hansnel1 wroteHi guys, It there a way to enter notation in Sibelius 7.5 and ReWire to Notion 5 in order to use Notion as the audio engine instead of Sibelius' audio engine?
