Setting up a Display Quantize Note Value

You can define the smallest note value that can be displayed by setting up a Display Quantize note value.

Prerequisite

You have recorded a figure with some staccato eighth notes, and you have opened it in the Score Editor.

Procedure

  1. Select Scores > Settings.
  2. On the Staff tab, open the Main tab.
  3. In the Display Quantize section, set the Notes value to 8.

Result

The eighth notes are displayed as expected. The Display Quantize setting tells the program to display all notes as if they were on exact eighth note positions, regardless of their actual positions and that it should not display any notes smaller than eighth notes.

Important

Setting a Display Quantize value does not alter the MIDI notes of your recording in any way. It only affects how the notes are displayed in the Score Editor.

After Completing This Task

Add a staccato symbol.
