If you have enabled Snap To Note mode (see
below), each segment will automatically snap
to the nearest semitone. Pressing the Shift
key on your keyboard while drawing a line
temporarily toggles the state of the Snap To
Line button. I.e., if Snap To Note mode is not
enabled, pressing Shift will enable it for as long
as Shift is pressed. Conversely, if Snap To Note
mode is enabled, pressing Shift will disable it
for as long as Shift is pressed.
If you move the cursor outside the Pitch
Graph during point entry, the graph will
automatically scroll.
To delete the last anchor point entered, press
delete on your keyboard (you can do this
repeatedly back to the very first anchor point).
Only one pitch correction object (Line, Curve,
or Note) can exist at any time point on the
Pitch Graph. When you complete the entry
of a line object, any object(s) that previously
existed at the same time will be deleted.
NOTE: If, while the Line Tool is
selected, you move the cursor onto
the Envelope Graph Display, it will
temporarily change to the Magnifying Glass
Tool, allowing you to quickly and easily move
to any other point in your audio and then
resume editing without needing to manually
change tools.
The Curve Tool
The Curve Tool is used to draw
arbitrary curves on the Pitch Graph.
Start the process by selecting the
Curve Tool and clicking anywhere on the Pitch
Graph to set an anchor point. Hold down
your mouse button and move the cursor to
draw the desired pitch contour curve. End the
process by releasing your mouse button.
Unlike the Line Tool, the Pitch Graph will not
scroll if you attempt to move the Curve Tool
cursor outside the current display area.
The Snap To Note mode does not aect the
Curve Tool.
Only one pitch contour object (Line, Curve,
or Note) can exist at any time point on the
Pitch Graph. When you complete the entry of
a Curve object, any object(s) that previously
existed at the same time will be deleted.
NOTE: If, while the Curve Tool is
selected, you move the cursor onto
the Envelope Graph Display, it will
temporarily change to the Magnifying Glass
Tool, allowing you to quickly and easily move
to any other point in your audio and then
resume editing without needing to manually
change tools.
The Note Tool
The Note Tool is used to draw new
Notes (duh!). Simply click and drag
near the desired horizontal graph
line or lane (depending on the current display
mode) to create a new Note.
Only one pitch contour object (Line, Curve, or
Note) can exist at any time point on the Pitch
Graph. When you complete the entry of a new
Note, any object(s) that previously existed at
the same time will be deleted.
NOTE: New Notes will always be
drawn precisely on semitone or scale
note graph lines or lanes (depending
on the display mode), regardless of the setting
of the Snap To Note button. If you wish to
create a note that is oset from a line or lane,
first draw the note on the nearest line or lane,
then ensure that Snap To Note mode is o and
use either the Arrow tool or the Nudge buttons
to move the Note to the desired pitch.
ANOTHER NOTE: If, while the Note
Tool is selected, you move the cursor
onto the Envelope Graph Display,
it will temporarily change to the Magnifying
Glass Tool, allowing you to quickly and easily
move to any other point in your audio and then
resume editing without needing to manually
change tools (is this beginning to sound
familiar?).
The Arrow Tool
The Arrow Tool is used to select
and drag or edit existing correction
objects (Lines, Curves, or Notes)
as well as to add or delete anchor points to
existing lines.
The Arrow Tool behaves as follows:
