Re: Partcombine not working for orchestral parts?

The part-combiner actually does a great job of merging identical dynamics — no 
need (usually!) to do any extra work.

No. The part-combiner *should* do that correctly (as I recall, from my rather 
heavy work with it several years ago).

Hope that helps!
