Tempo Change
If you want to change the tempo at a certain bar of the song, then use this dialog box to type in the new tempo in
beats per minute. The tempo change takes effect at the beginning of the bar and remains until a new tempo change
at another bar is inserted. Alternatively, you can specify a percentage change in tempo.
Style/Tempo/Patch/Harmony Changes
Insert changes of styles, tempo, patches, and harmonies (melody and soloist) at any bar (and any beat of any bar) in
the song with the Edit Settings for Current Bar dialog, which opens with the [F5] key. For example, click on the
[.STY] button to choose the new style from the StylePicker window.
Style, tempo, patch, and harmony (Melody and Soloist) changes will be recorded on your song worksheet indicated
by a small red square around the bar that will be affected. Changes remain in effect from that bar forward until new
changes are recorded.
Song Settings Dialog
The Ctrl+N keys or the Edit | Settings (for This Song)… menu command brings up the Song Settings dialog.
Here, you can choose from song settings
such as chorus variations, chord
embellishments, tag jumps, and endings, to
make your song interesting and varied.
The [S] button on the main screen will
also bring up the Song Settings dialog.
This button opens a dialog box where the song’s title and its main settings can be
typed in.
