I scanned in a quint toms part for marching percussion...but it came out as nylon guitar with piano midi >< how do I change it to the correct one?

and I can't copy and paste measures can I? Doesn't seem to work like it does on notepad.

You should be able to change the instrument in the Instrument List. And yes, copying and pasting should be the same. Are you having problems doing this?

Oh, for some strange reason the copy and paste works...

I should have specified the problem better. I can change the instrument, but I can't change from percussion to the standard kit, which as the quint midi.

You might try setting up a new score, with the instruments set as you like, and copy the notes into that one.
