This feature makes notes automatically appear on the correct string according to their MIDI channel value.
Normally, the program automatically decides on which string to display a note, by looking at the pitch and then putting the note at the lowest possible string. You can then either manually move a note to the correct string, or use the “MIDI Channel 1–6” option to let the program move the notes automatically.
Procedure
- Many guitar synthesizers are able to transmit each string on a different MIDI channel. If you have such an instrument, set it up so that the high E string transmits on MIDI channel 1, the B string transmits on MIDI channel 2, etc.
This feature can be used for MIDI string instruments with up to six strings.
- Record the project. Quantize and edit it as desired.
- Make sure that the “MIDI Channel 1–6” option is activated and convert the notes into tablature, as described above.
- The notes are automatically placed on the right strings.
For example if you played a “B” on the low E-string, it appears as a “7” on that string, not as a “2” on the A-string.
