l) Flag – a flag is a user defined four letter string that will ask the “If…?” later in the rule set . This is one of the most

valuable concepts in editing a ruleset . Once a flag has been assigned, it can be called upon as often as you like

throughout your ruleset . This provides great control in your rulesets to make actions perform different actions for

different conditions .

m) Not Flag – asks if a flag is not used . You can remove certain flagged conditions from subsequent rules in your ruleset .

n) Is Ghost – asks if the note in the Score is a Ghost Note . You can set this to True or False

r) String is – asks if the score has a defined string that a stringed instrument is playing on (Choose from string 1-7)

s) Technique is on – asks if a certain playback technique for a particular instrument is turned on in the score . Techniques

are instrument based and can usually be found in the palette for a particular instrument . A full list follows on the next

page . Examples for this are “con sordino”, “pizzicato”, or “tremolo” . There are many techniques in the list and each

instrument has its own valuable set . You can also enter these using the Express Entry Tool, which can be called upon by

pressing the apostrophe key ‘ on your computer keyboard . Then, start typing the name of your technique .

t) Technique is not – asks if a certain playback technique is not turned on in a score

u) No techniques - asks if there are no techniques on a note

v) User technique - asks if a particular custom user techniques is set . These custom expressions are created and saved in

the xml file that is part of a library preset - this is for situations where a technique required by a library, is not found by

default in Notion (see over page for full list of techniques) . You then set the playback rules of the expression using the

‘User technique’ condition . Once saved, they can be quickly recalled and added to the score from the on-screen

techniques palette .
