I'm more or less settling down on some standard layers that I add to all my pieces when I'm playing:
- Bowing (for recording bowing)
- Geography etc (highlighting repeats, scrubbing out first time bars, arrow forward to indicate tempo pushing on, etc)
- Corrections (Misprints, or musical changes to suit a cut, etc)
- Rehearsal (Stuff that I can quickly note in rehearsal, then later copy neater into one of the above)
Similarly, I'm working out what my layers will be when conducting:
- Beats in a bar (we have some that change from one bar to the next, and it saves me thinking
)
- Geography (as above)
- Cues (where I need to glare at a particular player/section)

It'd be nice if there was a library of stock layers that I could add to a piece with a couple of clicks. So, this is a violin piece...click: That's the violin layers added.
It'd be even nicer if it could then set preferences for colours and line widths based on layers. So bowing marks are black or very dark blue, geography is red, and so on.
Would that be possible, or am I asking something unreasonable?
