alt Hacker NewsYeah, that's basically it, and I guess it's called "Modernist" in Dorico. I'm not in front of my music workstation, and am striking out on finding a link to the documentation right now, but it's available from I think it's called the Notation Options Library. There are a few more Modernist options available having to do with courtesy accidentals. I've yet to get one of these scores in front of an actual group to get feedback, so obviously use your judgement.
Okay, that makes sense. I play bass in a Big-Band, and some of our newer charts are this way, including some Metheny arrangements.
I'm fine with it, and might even lean towards saying it's easier to sight read, but on the other hand, I've spent decades reading traditional, so I'm used to that too. And on a jazz chart, I can ad-lib if needed to keep the show going if I get confused by something. My hands will usually gravitate to the right place even if my brain is wrong.
