Editing in the Phrase Scope

■ Changing the pitch (fixed movement of the note upward or downward)

1. Choose the arrow ( ) from the tool buttons.

2. Use the mouse to drag the note, and then press the [SHIFT] key of your computer.

The mouse cursor will be shown as an up/down arrow.

3. Drag the note upward or downward.

The waveform display area will show how the phrase has changed.

The keyboard shown in the vertical axis of the waveform display area will give you an idea of the

pitch that will sound. The vertical axis of the note area will indicate the note number with which

the phrase will be played.

■ Adjusting the legato timing

A note will be colored light blue to indicate that it is played legato with the adjacent notes.

* Notes colored light blue are the default notes generated when you paste a sample into the Vari Track. In

contrast, the notes you add by recording or by using the pen tool are colored purple. You cannot delete

light blue notes.
