Song title
Name of the Song.
Tempo
Current Tempo of the Song (in BPM, Beats Per Minute).
Staff
The selected track is shown as traditional music notation.
Depending on the content of the track, either notes or chords are
shown. Pa600 takes care for you of 'cleaning-up' the score, so that
it is always easy to read.
Several automatic operations are carried on to clean-up the
score: Pa600 automatically quantizes to 1/16 notes, detects trip-
lets, avoids note overlaps, understands syncopation, and draws
beams according to the time signature. In addition, spacing and
measure length are dynamic, and single, double and end mea-
sure bars are automatically added.
If a KeySign (Key Signature) event is found at position
'001.01.000' of the Song's Master track, the correct key signature
is also shown.

assignable switch or footswitch, allows for muting the melody track

If your song has the melody part assigned to the same track, you
can mute or unmute it by using this button, or the assigned switch/
