Notation and lyrics
Basic musical editing
To change a note’s enharmonic spelling
1. Select the Smart tool in the Control Bar and double-click the note to open the Note Properties
dialog box.
2. In the Pitch textbox, type a new spelling for the note.
3. Click OK .
SONAR displays the note with the new enharmonic spelling.
You can change enharmonic spellings in other views, such as the Event List view, by similarly typing
a new spelling wherever the note pitch is displayed as a text string.
You can also use the
Process > Find/Change command to change enharmonic spellings—for
example, to change multiple occurrences of Eb5 to D#5, or even all Ebs to D#s. See “Process >
Find/Change” on page 785 for more information.
MIDI Channels and the Fretboard
You can display notes on the fretboard based on the note event’s MIDI channel. (Do not confuse this
with the Track MIDI channel.) A single track can hold events on many different MIDI channels. See
“Assigning a MIDI channel (Chn)” on page 230 for more information. Displaying notes using this
method is 100% accurate because each string is represented by an individual MIDI channel. For
example, String 1 = MIDI channel 11, String 2 = MIDI channel 12, etc.
