Chord Functions
Converting Chord Events to MIDI
515
For Basic voicings only Octave Offset from C3 is available. This allows you to
determine an offset value for the default octave range.
Converting Chord Events to MIDI
You can convert chord events to MIDI for further editing or for printing a lead sheet
in the Score Editor.
PROCEDURE
1. Add an instrument track or a MIDI track.
• To add an instrument track, select Project > Add Track > Instrument.
• To add a MIDI track, select Project > Add Track > MIDI.
2. Do one of the following:
• To convert all chord events to MIDI, select Project > Chord Track > Chords
to MIDI.
• To convert only selected chords to MIDI, select the chord events and drag
them to the MIDI or instrument track.
RESULT
A new MIDI part is created, containing the chords as MIDI events.
Controlling MIDI Playback using the Chord Track
You can use the chord track to control MIDI playback.
Using Live Transform
Live Transform allows you to transpose the MIDI input live to a chord progression
on the chord track. This way, you do not have to worry about what key you hit on
your MIDI keyboard as the MIDI input is transposed to match chords or scales on
your chord track in realtime.
PROCEDURE
1. Create a MIDI or an instrument track and activate Record Enable.
2. In the Inspector, open the Chords section.
3. Open the Live Transform pop-up menu and do one of the following:
• To map the MIDI input to chord events, select Chords.
