I'm scoring for a full symphonic band and have several instruments with 2 parts on one staff (1st and 2nd oboe together on one staff, 1st and 2nd trombone together, etc.). I'd like to print each part separately. There are times when the 1st part is playing but the 2nd isn't. How do you make it so on the part you have the notes appearing for the 1st part, but multimeasure rests for the 2nd? When there's only one layer of music, it'll show up in both parts. If I fill the 2nd layer with whole rests, then it won't allow a multimeasure rest to appear on the 2nd part.
