Splitting tie chains
You can split tie chains at specified positions, for example, if you want to change the pitch halfway through a tie chain or delete individual ties within tie chains. This does not remove any other ties in the tie chain.
Procedure
- In Write mode, select the tie chain you want to split.
- Press Shift-N to start note input.
-
Move the caret to where you want to split the tie chain.
-
Press Right Arrow/Left Arrow to move the caret to the right/left, according to the current rhythmic grid resolution.
-
Press Space to advance the caret to the next rhythmic position, according to the note value currently selected.
-
- Press U to split the tie chain.
- Optional: If you want to split the same tie chain in multiple places, move the caret to the next rhythmic position where you want to split the tie chain.
- Press Esc or Return to stop note input.
Result
The tie chain is split at the caret position.
