Audible Keyboard
The Audible Keyboard is a representation of a standard piano keyboard and is only found within the Notes (MIDI piano roll) display of the Graphic Editor window. When you position the cursor over a key, the note information is displayed by the Current Cursor Position at the top left corner of the Graphic Editor window. Clicking on a key on the keyboard plays that note on the Output currently assigned to that track. If Metro is recording, you can click notes on the keyboard to record them. The Audible Keyboard can also be used for Step Time entry.
Clicking and holding the mouse while moving up and down across the Audible Keyboard continues to play or record these notes. Velocity is controlled by moving the
mouse left or right. Option-clicking on the keyboard plays notes in the most recently selected scale.
Option-click the Zoom In icon to vertically zoom in on the Audible Keyboard. This action also increases the size of note data displayed in the Graphic
Editor. Option-click the Zoom Out icon to zoom the Audible Keyboard back to its default size.
Choosing the Pencil Tool puts you into Metro’s Step Record mode. With the Pencil Tool selected, clicking on a key enters the note; the current insertion point
determines the entered note’s start time.
