ture for selected parts of a track, select part of a track and use the
Regenerate command.
In the Staff View Layout dialog box you can choose a preset style of tab-
lature by choosing from the Preset popup menu, or you can deÞne your
own style by clicking the DeÞne button in the Staff View Layout dialog
box to open the Tablature Settings dialog box.
To Define a Tablature Style..
1. In the Staff View Layout dialog box, click the name of the track
you want to define tablature for.
2. Click the Define button (lower right corner).
The Tablature Settings dialog box appears.
3. Click the Tablature tab and choose a tablature method from the
Method dropdown list. There are three methods to determine how
the TAB is displayed:
• Floating - which allows the notes to spread over the
entire fretboard
• Fixed - This specifies where on the neck these notes
should be played. When Fixed is selected the Finger
span and Lowest fret fields are used together to define
the "box" where the notes are displayed. The Finger
span parameter determines how many consecutive frets
will be used to display the note. For example, if Finger
span is set to 4, then Pro Audio will attempt to place all
the notes within those 4 frets. The Lowest Fret then
determines where on the fretboard the notes will be dis-
played within the Finger span. The red box in the fret-
board display changes to reflect the settings in these
two parameters.
• MIDI Channel - This uses the event's MIDI channel to
determine which string the note should be displayed on.
When MIDI Channel is selected, the user chooses which
series of MIDI Channels should be considered. This is
useful for MIDI Guitarists that record parts in MONO
mode, where each string transmits on a different MIDI
channel.
Channel field will cause it to use MIDI channels 1 - 6,
selecting 2 , 2 - 7, and so on.)
NOTE: Select the Skip Channel 10 option if you are using a
Yamaha G50 or other device which reserves channel 10.
