For the default All Instruments set, the score settings are always used, except when a
single MIDI region is displayed. In this situation, the part settings are used.

Filtering Single Instruments from the Score

You can quickly extract a single instrument from the score, by choosing it from the pop-up
menu that appears when you Option-click the Score Set pop-up menu.

This way, you don’t need to create a score set for every instrument in order to produce
parts. You should note, however, that only the track instrument names are used as
instrument names in the score. So, if you use this method for printout of your parts, you
see the real instrument names of the Arrange window track instruments.

Importing Score Sets from Other Projects

You can import score sets from other projects.

Preparing the Score Layout for Printing

This section outlines a number of changes you can make to the overall score layout. These
primarily involve display customizations, and use of the Score project settings or
preferences. For full details, see

Score Settings

and

Score Preferences in Logic Pro

.

Understanding the Page Display Options

You should use Page Score view for layout work when preparing for printing. In Page
Score view, Logic Pro automatically displays as many facing pages as possible, depending
on the size of the Score Editor window and current zoom level.
