Changing the length of the repeated phrase in bar repeat

regions

You can change the number of bars that make up the repeated phrase in individual bar repeats

after you have input them, for example, if you want the region to repeat the previous two bars

rather than the previous four bars.

NOTE

You cannot repeat more bars than exist before the bar repeat region. For example, if a bar

repeat region follows the

rst notated bar in a ow, you cannot increase the number of bars in

the repeated phrase.

2. In the Properties panel, select one of the following options from the No. bars menu in the

Bar Repeat Regions group:

● One bar

● Two bars

● Four bars

RESULT

changed. This is also reected in playback.

TIP

● Any dynamics you add within bar repeat regions affect the playback of the repeated music.

● You can also change the length of the repeated phrase by opening the repeats popover and

changing the entry.
