To help save you time and effort, Notion provides a quick way to create a new multi-instrument
score based on your choice of template . Although these scores include typical orchestration for
ten different ensembles, you often need to make changes covered in this chapter and:
8 Adding staves assigned to instruments other than Notion sounds .
8 Deleting instruments (staves)
8 Moving instruments around in a different order .
