Renumbering Bars
You can use the Renumber Bars command to re-
number all bars in the session, effectively chang-
ing the bar locations for all regions, meter and
tempo events while leaving their position in-
tact. In doing so, however, the SMPTE and sam-
ple locations of the session data are not
changed.
To renumber bars:
1 Choose Event > Renumber Bars.
2 Specify the bar you want to renumber, along
with the new bar number, then click Renumber.
Key Signatures
The Key Signature ruler lets you add key signa-
tures to Pro Tools sessions. Key signatures can be
imported and exported with MIDI data. This is
especially useful when exporting MIDI se-
quences for use in notation programs like Sibel-
ius. The default key signature is C major.
Key Signature Ruler
The Key Signature ruler lets you add, edit, and
delete key signatures. You can use key signatures
to indicate key and key changes in your
Pro Tools session. Key signatures can also be
used for certain diatonic functions, such as
transposing in key or constraining pitches to the
specified key.
To view the Key Signature ruler, do one of the
following:
„ Select View > Rulers > Key Signature.
– or –
„ From the Ruler View selector in the Edit win-
dow, select Key.
You can also show or hide the Key Signature
Staff for the Key Signatures ruler.
