Dec 13, 2023 at 1:59 comment added Robusto I can tell you for sure that I've never seen anything but ledger lines in orchestral flute parts. Not even the 8va - - - - - - - - dodge, which I only ever saw in books of etudes and the like, where space on the page was at a premium.

Dec 12, 2023 at 16:25 comment added fdomn-m did ask a cellist - cellists don't tend to need a lot of ledger lines as it's easier to change to a higher clef, even for a single bar. Any more than 2 extra lines at they start blurring together - and out comes the pencil. Violinists obviously are more used to it.

Dec 11, 2023 at 20:43 comment added Dekkadeci The bad news is that I don't recall 8va treble clef being used in violin music at all - I recall 4 or more ledger lines above the treble clef being used more often (sometimes along with regular treble clef notes in the same chord).
Dec 11, 2023 at 20:26 comment added Noscere Oh, and hello everyone! Nice place you've got here! I'm new (new to here, but not stack, and not to music either). Is there a place to post your intro, etc? I'll have a look around! I found this because I was googling my above question, found an old post and was directed to create a new question instead. So here we are.
