Apple Logic Pro 9 - Manual (Page 902)

Note: Church rests cannot be longer than nine bars. If this length is exceeded, the modern
symbol automatically replaces the church rest.
Multi bar rests cannot be moved with the mouse. You can, however, change their bar
position in the Event List or Event Float window. You can also alter the length of the rest
(shown in the VAL column) in these windows.
Using Beat Slashes in the Score Editor
Beat slashes can be used in place of automatic rests, or they can be manually inserted.
Both single and double slashes (commonly used to indicate a pause) are available in the
Part box.
You can freely place slashes on top of the staff.
Editing Clefs in the Score Editor
The clefs in the Part box are intended for clef changes in the middle of a part, for a short
section of the music. Inserted clefs change the score display, starting at the precise insert
position (which can even be in the middle of a bar).
Note: If you need to change the clef of the entire region, choose an appropriate staff
style. (See
Working with Staff Styles .)
When you insert a C-clef, watch the help tag carefully, as this clef can be positioned at
five different heights, depending on the register (alto, tenor clef, and so on).
The four symbols below the clefs do exactly what you expect them to do: they mark a
section to be played either one or two octaves higher (or lower). The length of the section
can be edited after insertion, by grabbing the end of the line and moving it horizontally.
To change an existing clef
1 Double-click the clef.
2 Select a clef in the Clef Selector dialog that appears, then click OK.
Note: The same applies to the basic clef of a region, but changing this clef affects the
staff style itself, as well as all regions that use the same staff style.
