The Multi Zone
You can zoom in and out using the plus and minus buttons
in the bottom right corner. You can also click in the ruler
along the top of the Editor Page and drag up to zoom out
and down to zoom in. Once you are zoomed in, you can
use the scroll bar along the bottom to scroll left or right
and the little scroll bar on the right hand side to scroll up
and down. You can also use the mouse wheel to scroll up
and down and [Shift]+mouse wheel to scroll left and right.
The slider along the right-hand side zooms the Key Editor
in and out. This makes the notes and the piano roll on the
left hand side larger and smaller.
You can click on the piano roll to hear a specific pitch.
The most important editing functions in the Key Editor are
described in the section “Key Editor” on page 23.
Mute
You can mute the instrument part by activating the “Mute”
button. Deactivate it to unmute the part.
Transpose
You can change the key of the event by adjusting the
transpose value.
To change the key, click and drag up or down.
You can also double click and enter a value from -24 to 24.
Zero is the default.
Transpose Lock
Activating transpose lock will lock the original transpose
value of the event. The event will no longer follow any glo-
bal transpose changes throughout the project.
Quantize value
You select a quantize value from the pop-up menu. This
will be used for all quantize-related functions such as
swing and triplets. It also determines the grid resolution
for the Key Editor.
Triplets On
When activated, Triplets On allows you to enter triplets in
an Instrument part. The resolution of the Triplets that can
be entered is determined by the Quantize value.
Perform Quantize
Activating “Perform Quantize” (or pressing [Q] on the
computer keyboard) will move all the notes to the nearest
bar or beat, depending on the Quantize value. If this is set
to quarter notes, all notes will be moved to the nearest
quarter note.
Swing
Swing allows you to add a more human feel to instrument
data. Click and drag the slider left or right to move the
notes. Which notes are affected depends on the Quantize
value. If the Quantize value is set to eighth notes, only
eighth notes will be affected when changing the swing
amount.
Legato Slider
This slider increases or decreases the amount of legato in
the selected Instrument part. Legato is defined as a
smooth, even style without any noticeable break between
notes. Therefore, when increasing Legato, you are stretch-
ing out the notes such that there is no noticeable attack be-
tween two notes. Decreasing this value will create shorter
notes, sounding more “staccato”.
