Position of a Flat in a Key
Hi Guys,
at the moment I am working on the transcription of a manuscript form early 1700. I try to stay as close as possible to the manuscript and that's why I am notating on 6 lines.
But now I noticed that if I want to use an F-major key, the flat of the b-flat is positioned on the high b-flat in bass system. Does anyone know how I can change to the lower b-flat as it is notated in the manuscript?
Thanks for your help!

Only by using a custom key signature

I see. Thanks!
And is there a possibility to use different keys in the two systems. Because if I use a custom key signature with the low b flat, also the key in g-clef changes...

Yes, via a local key signature
