Delete Voices 1-4

Version 1.2

Added 11 Feb 2013 (last updated 13 Aug 2014)

For use with Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1 and Sibelius 7.5

Filtering out a voice and deleting it in Sibelius can take up to six steps if tuplets are involved. These plugins allows you to delete a voice with one command.

They are designed to be run from keyboard shortcuts, hence four plugins rather than one with a dialog and they will also work on selected passages that intersect tuplets.

Tip: Define Ctrl+Shift+Alt+F1-4 for these plugins respectively. This corresponds to the default Alt+1-4 (create or move to voice) and Ctrl+Shift+Alt+1-4 (filter voice) shortcuts.

  • Update: General bug fixes and improvements
  • Update to version 1.2 for Delete Voices 2, 3 and 4: Voice 1 is now never left empty in a bar. If no voice 1 notes or rests are present a bar rest is added.
