I read that you can create your own styles, but I thought that was a bit complicated. Changing an existing style should be much easier.
And "MultiStyles" are new to me, I think I'll take a closer look at them.

Thanks so much for bringing them to my attention, Charlie!


Yes. MultiStyles are very versatile and it's easy to modify any style into a MultiStyle for use on a particular song. PG Music developers use RT-1152: silence in a lot of their MultiStyles.

To me, it would work good in a workflow where you create your Chord Chart and then decide on the various instruments to use in your song and create a series of MultiStyles using an instrument or two in each new MultiStyle so that you will then be able to change instruments and combinations of them as easily as you can edit the Chord Sheet. You would rearrange instruments by changing Part Markers.
