Staff
The selected track is shown as traditional music notation.
Depending on the content of the track, either notes or chords are
shown. Pa3X 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: Pa3X 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.
Currently selected staff marker
This red vertical line shows the approximate position of the play-
back, by indicating the current staff in play.
Current measure indicator
