Notation and lyrics
Opening the Staff view
There are several ways to open the Staff view:
• In the Track view, select the MIDI tracks you want to see, then choose
Views > Staff View , or
press ALT+7.
• Right-click on a track in the Clips pane and choose Views > Staff View on the pop-up menu.
You can always change the tracks that are displayed: in the Staff view, click the Track menu, choose
Pick Tracks and select the tracks you want. You can display one or more tracks.
The Staff view lets you edit, delete, copy, and move notes during playback or recording, in real time.
This means you can loop over a portion of your project and hear any change you make on the next
loop. You can freeze the Staff view from automatic scrolling during playback by pressing the
SCROLL LOCK key.
The Staff view includes zoom tools that let you change the vertical and horizontal scale of the view.
Displaying tracks
The Staff view also has a Track List pane that allows you to set a track’s Mute/Solo/Arm status and
to change track focus.
To view the Track List pane:
• Click the Staff view Track menu and choose Show/Hide Track Pane .
To set track focus:
• In the Track List pane, click the track name.
To mute, solo, or arm a track:
• In the Track List pane, click a track’s M , S , or R buttons, respectively.
Staff pane layout
The Staff pane can display up to 24 staves of standard and percussion notation. When you open the
Staff pane, SONAR automatically picks a clef for each track—bass or treble—by looking at the range
of pitches in the track. If a track has notes that fall into both clefs, or no notes at all, SONAR
automatically splits the track into two staves, treble and bass. You can change the assignment of
clefs with the
Staff View Layout dialog box.
When you split a track into treble and bass staves, you must select a split point. Notes at or above
the split are placed into a treble staff, notes below the split are placed into a bass staff.
A wide variety of editing options for notes, layout, and MIDI effects are available from the Staff pane
right-click menu.
Percussion settings are discussed in the section
“Setting up a percussion track” on page 1214.
Note: You can right-click in the Track List pane to access Snap to Scale commands. For more
information about this feature, see “Snap to Scale” on page 778.
