You are here: How do I... > S > Split points > Correcting split point errors

Occasionally, because there is no clear split point, or because your hands cross, a HyperScribe transcription will contain left-hand notes in the treble-clef staff, or right-hand notes in the bass-clef staff. Using the Note Mover tool, you can quickly restore the notes to the proper staves. See Note Mover tool.

To correct split point errors

  1. Click the Note Mover tool . The Note Mover menu appears.
  2. Choose Note Mover > Delete After Merge. In other words, you’ll delete the incorrectly split note from its current staff, and merge it with the correct staff.
  3. Click the measure containing the incorrectly split notes. A handle appears on each notehead.
  4. Select the notes to be moved. Select one note by clicking its handle, several adjacent notes by drag-enclosing them, or additional notes by SHIFT-clicking (or shift–drag-enclosing them). The handles you select are highlighted.
  5. Drag any highlighted handle onto the target staff. Don’t drag it to any particular line or space; just drag it anywhere onto the correct staff. The notes are automatically transferred to the correct lines or spaces of the new staff.

Note: If you are not pleased with the results check your quantization settings in Quantization Setting dialog box in the MIDI/Audio menu. Also the More Quantization Settings dialog box. See Quantization Settings dialog box and More Quantization Settings dialog box.
