The Note Display

The note display shows up to four 1/4-notes worth of

data at once (that’s one measure in 4/4 time). If the se-

lected time signature results in more than four 1/4 notes

per measure, then the display will scroll to show the ex-

tra notes. On the other hand, if the time signature is 3/4,

then the 4th beat is not used and appears as double

dashes on the display (“========”).

Moving Around In the Note Display

You can move the cursor down to the note display (the

note pointer will appear filled) and move the note pointer

to any position at which you want to enter a note, or to

any note that you want to delete. You will actually hear

the appropriate note or chord when the note pointer is

moved to an existing note symbol. When you move the

note pointer past the end of the note display, the next

measure will appear.
