5 . If you are writing for performers to read your score, then you usually leave the three properties under Notated C
sounds the way the software sets them . With the first drop-down list, Notion shows what you see on a score for
Concert C with transposing instruments . A piano, for example, is a C instrument, but a trumpet is a Bb instrument .
This can be changed, if needed . Other instruments, such as a piccolo or guitar, don’t require transposed keys, but
play at a different octave . The middle drop-down list selects sounds at the same octave, one octave, or two
octaves from written notes – at the same (–), Higher, or Lower direction as set in the third drop-down list .
6 . Then press OK .
» You return to Score Setup .
7 . If needed, change other staves (start at Step 2) . Otherwise, close Score Setup by pressing the
Esc key, or clicking the button in the toolbar, or pressing the keyboard shortcut of [Windows: Ctrl + T;
Mac:  + T] again .
