Make notation with Word system skillfully

notation, like a fairy, let us from the beautiful music closer, touch the heart. Does not need specialized notation software, does not use any notation font, inserts the EQ field code cleverly in Word directly, can let the genie appear immediately! From a single melody to many parts of the music can be made, copied, modified very convenient, whether you are music lovers, or professional music producers, and quickly to experience it.

Start "switch" to change the sprite

"EQ Field" is the scientific formula of Word editing function, can produce many complex mathematical formulas, here used in the EQ domain of many switches in two: stacking switch and up and down switch.

First look at the 16-note "6" with two bass points. Its EQ field code is "{eq/o (6,/s/do10),/s/do14 (?),/s/do5 (-),/s/do7 (-))}".

The basic structure of this code is "{eq/o ()}", which can be described as "{domain name + switch}". "EQ" is a scientific formula domain name, "/O ()" is called a switch to "/" to the beginning, to "()" End, "()" to enter the contents of the switch, the Middle "o" and other English letters for the switch name. The "6" in Figure 1 is the name of the base element, followed by "/s/do10 (?)" and the "/s/do5 (-)" switch represents the element "?", "-" The following superscript form is superimposed on the basic element "6", "Do" is "down" shorthand, the number "10" and "5" is the subscript away from the horizontal position (can be changed), equal to "6" added two bass point and two time line; If you need to add a treble point, change "do" to "up" and change the number on the superscript. Need to reduce the high or low point or time line, directly delete the corresponding up and down standard switch. Note that between the switches used when stacking, to be separated by commas, the numbers, letters, and punctuation in the switch are half-width, with only one half of the space between the domain name and the basic switch, and no gap between each of the remaining switches; The English letters are case-insensitive.

How do I insert and edit EQ field codes? Very simply, in Word's Insert menu, select fields, select Equation and formula in the categories in the dialog box, click "EQ" in the "domain" below, click "Field codes" in the lower left, and click "Options" to double-click the name of the switch you want, You can add them to the field Codes column, enter or modify field codes directly in this column, and then press OK to insert a section of the EQ field code at the page cursor position (see Figure 2). Enter the above code directly on the word page is invalid, you must first insert the above methods, and then modify the page to be effective. Right-click the field code, click "Toggle field Code" in the pop-up drop-down menu to switch it to a visual form, and then switch again to appear as a field code.

The elves lined up and the music flowed

So how does a complete sheet of music work out exactly?

First step sheet music title: in the upper center of the page input song name, subtitle, signature, shoot number, speed and expression terminology, songwriters and other separation of the lower ends of the title. For example, the EQ field code for the E-tone number is "{EQ 1=/s/up6 (b)/s/do0 (E)}", where "/s/up6 (b)" indicates that "B" is marked at a distance of 6, similarly, "/s/do0 (E)" indicates that "E" is marked at a distance of 0. 44 beat plus 42 in the EQ field code is "{eq/f (4,4)} {eq/f (2,4)}", where "/f ()" is the fractional switch, "/F (4,4)", "/f (2,4)" "is four-fourths, two-fourths meaning." "74 pats per minute affectionately" how to show more vividly? You can use the ellipse and rectangle in the AutoShape to flatten the four-note in a staff, and then enter "= 74". Author information can be entered in text or stylistic boxes.

The second step notes and other symbols: four notes in time value than its long note, directly in the page input can be added to the line with "view → toolbar → symbol bar" in the insertion of the minus sign. Quavers a note with a shorter time value than it does, use the EQ field input as described above. The bar line is entered directly with the "/Key +shift key". Connect with "AutoShape → basic shape → arc" change shape after the input, you can also use the "crescent shape" by rotation, change fine and fill with black after the input. The repetition number and the Terminator line are best made with graphical tools. The "house number" uses the AutoShape → basic shape → left and right bracket to rotate, shape, and then enter a small number with a text box to insert. The door is enclosed in the right and left brackets. When you drag or move the mouse, press CTRL or ALT key to fine-tune the selected symbol.

The third step lyrics: directly below the note input can be noticed between the lyrics and notes can not be misplaced.

Fourth Step page modification: According to personal preference, respectively, the font, font size, color, line spacing and other aspects of the decoration, you can also note the field code in the high and low points and the spacing of the line to adjust the appropriate, so that the overall appearance of the spectrum surface coordination, beautiful.

The fifth step of the music output: Printable output to the paper, or by capturing the software to intercept the bitmap inserted into the relevant documents, but also virtual printing to the graphics software to do further processing, the finished product in vector form output, can be used for professional publishing.

Tip: Tips for increasing the speed of music input

* First Use the EQ field input all types of notes, rests, the more complete the better, and the use of Office drawing function, directly in Word to make other musical symbols, stacked by category, and saved as a Word template, so that each time the spectrum of the direct copy, paste use.

* Use the "macro" function to make a variety of musical symbols (such as notes, rests, lines, extensions, end lines, repeated numbers, vibrato, etc.) into a different button, the focus on the word page, which symbol, a little more quickly.
