Basic musical editing
Auditioning
Sometimes it is useful to listen to your music slowly, note-by-note, rather than at full speed. For
example, you may need to locate a bad note, or you may be trying to learn the correct fingering for a
difficult passage.
The Staff view has two features that let you audition your composition at reduced speed: Scrub and
Step Play. The Scrub tool lets you drag a vertical bar over the staff, playing the notes as it goes. You
can scrub backward or forward at any speed. Step Play lets you step through the project note by
note, in either direction.
To audition with the Scrub tool
1. Hold down the J key to activate the Scrub tool.
2. Drag the mouse horizontally through the Staff pane to play the notes.
SONAR plays any notes the scrub line passes over.
To play notes with Step Play
1. Set the Now time by clicking in the Time Ruler.
2. Step through the music as follows:
