Lyrics and copying
Posted: Thu Jan 05, 2006 11:45 pm
Hello composers and lyricists!
I ran into a problem. I am using Print Music 2004 (not the free version) and I used mass edit to copy a few bars of music--four--which already had lyrics beneath the notes. THEN, I c;icked on LYRICS and went back to the copied measures and wrote NEW LYRICS. What I then noticed was that the NEW LYRICS replaced the lyrics I had used with the melody earlier. Make sense?
This is part of a longer theater piece with musical interludes between the lyrics, so a repeat sign isn't really appropriate here. Does anyone out there have an idea how to fix this problem so I can write new lyrics without having the old ones AUTOMATICALLY replaced?
thanks in advance
