Find Parallel Motion Plug-in

How to get there

From the menu, choose Scoring and Arranging, and then Find Parallel Motion. If there is no selection when you invoke the Find Parallel Motion command, it will process the entire document.

What it does

The Find Parallel Motion plug-in is used to find the parallel fifths and octaves in a region of selected music. The plug-in compares notes found in different voices, layers and staves.

After invoking the Find Parallel plug-in, a dialog will be displayed. After clicking Find Next, the dialog will also indicate the staff, measure, and beat in which parallel occurred. The plug-in will also scroll the document so that at least one of these notes will be visible (it scrolls to the note that occurs first). The Find Parallel plug-in always uses MIDI note number, regardless of the Display Pitch setting in the View section of the Program Options. See Program Options-View.
