Bb Bass (Bb Tuba) & Bb Euphonium

• Mar 20, 2012 - 20:54

I write for British brass bands and could really do with a Bb Tuba and Bb Euphonium option - otherwise I'm writing for Bb cornet and putting it down octaves...

any help gratefully received!

You can change the transposition of any instrument by right clicking the staff and choosing Staff Properties and the clef using the Clefs palette. So create the score for regular tuba and euphonium then change the transpostion (and possibly clef).

Seems the possibility of adding entries for these directly to the instruments list was discussed at one point, but apparently it didn't happen for 1.2. However, I see there is already a "UK Brass band" template, and if you use that to create your scores, they have the transpositions set up already.
