Okay folks,

I've looked at the previous posts/questions/answers re: this subject but I seem to have a different problem.

I'm placing ensemble cue notes onto a big band score in the drum set part.  Cues are going into Layer 4 with stems set "up" and rests adjusted by 6 steps.  Layer 1 stems are set "down".  But, I'm trying to reduce the note size of the cues to 75% using the percentage tool.  In just 2 measures of music, I'm able to change all but one eighth note to the smaller percentage and this particular note will not change at all.  Can't make it 75%.  Can't make it 125%.  Can't make it 15%.  The note itself is "high tom" on the staff as is the rest of the cue notes and is on beat 3-and.

Any ideas?

How are you going about this? (Attaching a cropped screenshot of the problem here might help us help you.)

If you are changing the Layer 4 notes one at a time, I would recommend you select Layer 4 and toggle Show Active Layer on. That way you should be able to resize all the notes at once (selecting whole measures or using a marquee) without interfering with the notes in the other layers.

 

Finally, I (as well as Forum mods) advise against putting personal info (such as your e-mail address) into these posts.
