Rest, Note Value, Velocity, % of Value Use these settings to set the parameters of notes you Step Enter. Clicking the Note icon opens a pop-up menu from which you choose duration of Step Entered notes; or you can change the value in the Note Value field. Remember that Shift-clicking on the Notes pop-up menu adds the previously displayed Note Value setting to the newly selected note value. Click on either the '3', '5', '7', or 'Dot' note value buttons in order to make the selected Note Value conform to a triplet, quintuplet, septuplet, or dotted note value, respectively. You can also use the 3, 5, 7, and . (the 'period' key on the QWERTY keyboard) key equivalents to toggle between each of the note value buttons. Clicking the Rest button will enter a rest for as long as the specified Note Value and % of Value settings. You can also use the r key equivalent to insert a rest value. % of Value scales the current Note Value setting when manually or Step Entering notes. For example, if the Note Value is set to 384 and the % of Value is set to 50%, a note with a duration of 192 clocks will be created when using the Pencil Tool or Step Entering data. Keeping the % of Value set to 100% would create a note with a duration of 384 when using the Pencil Tool or Step Entering data. The Velocity setting determines the velocity value of new notes when using the Pencil Tool or Step Entering data. See Also: Step Recording The Graphic Editor Window
