Re: Difficulty logging in to Notat.io
Well this is extraordinary. We have just had four hours of thunderstorms here in NE Scotland. At the height of the storms I unplugged many things, including the telephone line (but not the power to the router which is via an anti-surge uninterrupted power supply). Anyway, I can now connect to this s...

Difficulty logging in to Notat.io
For about a week now, I have been unable to log in to this site via my router. Today I have logged in via G3 (best available here) using my computer via my mobile and ‘personal hotspot.’ Some automated security up-date in my router seems to be blocking access to this site. The router network appears...

Re: Making the switch to Dorico?
… … … I suppose we are both lucky to have the tools that suit us. None of the computer music typesetting tools really suit me as a composer: manuscript is more instinctive, natural and flexible (and I still use it for all the preliminary stages). However economics mean it's much (hugely) less expen...

Re: "Progressive Correction": Beethoven
It also makes me wonder whether I shouldn't try to preserve more of the personal touches (even eccentricities) from my pencil sketches and drafts when I typeset my own scores in Finale. Something can be lost, certainly.

Re: Beethoven Stems
John, a very minor question: I see Beethoven has a dotted crotchet (quarter) rest, but that you prefer crotchet followed by quaver (eighth). Why?

Re: Composers vs Editors: Another controversial note
… … …I have begun work on Beethoven's piano sonatas and will probably post here regarding my observations as I go. If you let me know the details when ready, assuming I'm still compos mentis (well, I am getting a bit ancient), I'd like to buy your Beethoven sonata edition. There might be less point...

Re: Comparing text fonts (Operatic Score)
There does indeed seem to be some research (though I don't know how thoroughly ‘peer reviewed’ etc) that suggests that sight-reading a vocal score with the libretto in a serif font is less prone to error than if it's in a sans serif one. It's something to do with ‘locking’ the eye in place. FWIW I c...
