Beaming
Beaming of eighth notes (and notes of smaller
value) is automatic in SongWriter, although you can override SongWriter’s
beaming decisions, either on a global or case-by-case basis.
- Click
the Simple Entry tool and select the note at the end of the desired beam. (You can CTRL-click to select a particular note).
- Press
the slash key (/). If the note was beamed to the previous
note, the beam breaks. If the note wasn’t beamed to the previous note,
two notes are now beamed together. Press the slash key again to restore
the beam to its previous form.
