Working With Notation
Default Pedal Position
This determines the vertical position of automatic pedal symbols (those created when
you use the MIDI sustain pedal during a real time recording). If this parameter is set to
zero, recorded MIDI sustain pedal events are hidden in the score. Pedal marks that you
manually insert from the Part box are not affected by this parameter.
“Open” Single Staffs
Displays single staffs without vertical lines at their start point (left side of the clef ).
Justify Last Staff
Lengthens the last line (the last staff system, in full scores) to the right page margin.
Hide Muted Regions, Hide Muted Tracks, and Hide Muted Notes
Excludes muted regions, or regions on muted tracks, or muted notes, from the score
display. If these options are not activated, muted tracks, regions, and notes will be
displayed in the score, even though they won’t be heard during MIDI playback.
Show Alias
Switches the display of aliases (see “
Working With Aliases in the Score Editor
page 695) in the score on or off.
Allow Alias Editing
Switches alias editing on or off (see “
Working With Aliases in the Score Editor
Alternate Repeat Symbols
If this option is activated, all repeat signs in the project will be displayed with real book
style brackets.
Chord Symbol Language
This pop-up menu allows you to choose between
 International (B, Bb, F#, …): Default setting
 German (H, B, F#, …): B → H, Bb → B
 German (H, Bb, F#, …): B → H, Bb → Bb
 German (H, B, Fis, …): C# → Cis, Eb → Es, and so on …
 Roman (Do, Re, Mi, …): CDEFGAB → Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti
In all Chord Symbol Language formats, the current format is also accepted for the input
of new chords.
The #, b, x, and bb characters are also active in the German (H, B, Fis, …) mode,
allowing for quick entry. In the Roman format, the second root string character can be
omitted (typing D7 or Do7 in Roman mode will both result in Do 7).
Changing the Chord Language automatically affects all chord symbols in the project. It
is not possible to mix chord languages.
