Working with percussion
Notation and lyrics
5. If you are entering a chord, continue clicking notes at the same Now Time. To move ahead, press
SHIFT+RIGHT ARROW and click a new note duration in the Control Bar’s Tools module, if
desired.
You can delete a note right after you enter it by pressing CTRL+Z, or at any time by selecting the
Erase tool in the Control Bar and clicking the note in the notation or TAB staffs.
SONAR gives you several options to play and hear the notes in your track:
• Scrubbing enables you to click each note in the Fretboard and hear it play. Hold down the J key to
activate the Scrub tool, then click the note.
• Scrub strumming enables you to “strum” chords by dragging the Scrub tool through a chord. With
the Scrub tool activated, drag through a chord on the Fretboard from below it or above it and back
and forth.
• CTRL+RIGHT ARROW/CTRL+LEFT ARROW moves the cursor through the track, playing each
note as it reaches it.
Working with percussion
The Staff view can display percussion tracks on a five-line percussion staff or on a single percussion
line. The staff usually displays notes for a drum set or multiple percussion instruments; the line is
used to display notes for a single instrument (although it need not be so).
SONAR lets you control the appearance of percussion staffs in considerable detail. You can display
percussion notes using several different types of noteheads and articulation symbols, and you can
map any percussion sound to any position on the percussion staff (in a percussion track, each MIDI
note value designates a different percussion instrument; mapping lets you display any instrument in
any position on the staff, regardless of the underlying MIDI note value). You can save your settings
as a preset, and use them again on other tracks and in other projects. SONAR supplies a standard
preset based on the General MIDI percussion standard and popularly accepted percussion staff
positions and noteheads.
