Enter the Required Notes and Rests

A number of parameters are used to define each note you enter
(described below). When you’ve set all the required parameters for
your next note, press [ENTER] to actually enter the note (or rest).
The 1 MEASURE pointer will advance by a corresponding
amount to the next note/rest location.

Note Length
To specify the length of the next note to be entered, move the
cursor to the note length symbols on the display (the bar under
the note length symbols will flash), use the [-1] and [+1] buttons
to select the note length you want to enter.

HINT

The length of any note entered can be extended by pressing the
[[[[[

j]]]]] button the required number of times while still holding [ E N -

[ E N -

T E R ]

T E R ] button. The length of the note is extended by the currently
selected note length each time the [[[[[

j]]]]] button is pressed. For

example: if the 8th-note length is selected an 8th note will initially
be entered when you press the [ E N T E R ]

[ E N T E R ]

[ E N T E R ] button; this will then be

extended to a quarter note if you press the [[[[[

j]]]]] button (while

still holding [ E N T E R ]

[ E N T E R ]

[ E N T E R ]), and then to a dotted quarter note if you

press [[[[[

j]]]]] a second time, and so on.
