Has made a piano composition and want to repeat a part of the paragraph. Fortissimo first and second time pianissimo.
Wondering if anyone knows how to do it.

Sorry, SongWriter can't do that - Ya gets what ya pays fer!

Workaround:

Make a duplicate of the document, just for the playback.

In the duplicate "playback" document, write out the repeats with fortissimo the first time, and pianissimo the second time.

Ok,
but I want a transcript of the notes.
Does anyone know how to write it down?
(Fortissimo first and second time pianissimo)
