Changing How Chord Events Are Displayed
You can change how chord events are displayed. This is useful if chord events overlap each other
at low zoom levels or if you do not like the font type.
PROCEDURE
1. On the chord track, activate Resolve Display Conicts.
2. In the Preferences dialog, select Event Display > Chords&Pitches, and set up the chord
font.
Here you can also determine the note name and naming format.
Scale Events
Scale events inform you which chord events t in a specic sequence of notes that belong to a
specic root note.
Cubase automatically creates scale events for your chord events.
To show the scale events, activate Show Scales on the chord track.
To audition the notes that belong to a scale event, click it.
However, you can also add and edit scale events manually.
Scale events have a specic start position. Their end is determined by the start of the next scale
event.
