Grace notes
To create a grace note
- Enter
the grace notes as “normal” notes.
- Click
the Speedy Entry tool
and click the measure in question. The editing
frame appears.
- Using
the arrow keys, position the cursor on the note you want to change to
a grace note, and press the semicolon (;) or the letter G. The
note becomes a grace note. On playback, the grace note will play just
ahead of the beat-even if there are many grace notes together, forming
a run. To change a grace note to a normal note, repeat the above procedure.
To beam grace notes
- Click
the Speedy Entry tool and click the measure in question. The editing
frame appears.
- Using
the arrow keys, position the cursor on the second note of any pair you
want beamed together, and press B (or the slash (/) key). Repeat
this process for any additional grace notes you want to include in this
beam group.
To add or remove the slashes from individual
grace notes
This method will only slash flagged grace
notes.
- Click
the Speedy Entry tool and click the measure in question. The editing
frame appears.
- Position
the cursor over the flagged grace note requiring a slash and press ` (accent).
This will place a slash on the grace note.
