jinghang Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Hi, how do I add 8va (octave higher) marking on the music? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gekker Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 You can use the Text tool to enter an "8va" on your score, it is available under the "Notation" tab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray21 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 However, when playing the piece with an 8va dynamic, the playback is not an octave higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gekker Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 The Text Tool will only place text as text, not as a notation. Crescendo doesn't have the "8va" notation. Please raise the note over the score to set it an octave higher for playback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaden Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 I used the 8va tool and used it over two octaves.Using my mouse I've been able to anchor it over my note range after several attempts. don't be discouraged, it definitely raises the notes an octave in play back mode. I'm hit and miss every time I use it so I can't explain how it is done exactly. I just know it works. Maybe crescendo has made this improvement since this was first posted.

Just to confirm, I just used the 8vb tool (one octave lower) on a score I am writing and that does the job. They are in the octave lines on the right hand menu. I wanted by treble clef to be one octave lower so I selected the 8vb tool and positioned my pointer arrow at where middle C would be on the piano clef under the first note. After clicking I pulled out the line to show where I want it to end and clicked again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
