![]() When you first create the time signature (T) select More Options, then in the Time Signature dialog, choose “Beam and Rest Groups…” Look for “Group 8ths (quavers) as:” and make sure the beam and rest groups are set correctly to support your quintuplet. Categories Rhythm & Meter, Sibelius, Tuplets Tags editingĬreating a quintuplet in the last beat of an 11/8 bar actually works for me, so if I were to guess, I would think that the beat grouping of the meter is set to 3,3,3,2 rather than the 3,2,3,3 you are looking for. The end result is a tuplet that correctly spans the full beat duration without requiring duration dots:įor my friend and colleague Lior Rosner. The Format section of the dialog allows you to display the tuplet value as a number, a ratio, or hidden: In Sibelius 6, select Tuplet… from the Create Menu.Įnter the tuplet ratio, in this case, 7:6. To open the tuplet dialog in Sibelius 7.x, select Other from the Tuplets group popup in the Note Input Tab: Here, you are given the flexibility to enter the tuplet value as a specific ratio. However, for the above case, it should actually be 7 sixteenths in the space of 6 sixteenths.įortunately, a simple solution can be found in Sibelius’ Tuplet dialog. This is because Sibelius is interpreting the default septuplet request as 7 sixteenths in the space of 4 sixteenths (2 eighths). ![]() By default, if you select a 16th note or rest on the downbeat in 6/8 time and create a default septuplet (CNTRL-7 Windows or CMND-7 Mac), you end up with an extra 8th rest: Q: How can I get Sibelius to create 16th septuplets in a bar of 6/8 without the duration dots?Ī: It’s a great question.
