Select the title or titles you want to download. Then tap Download or Download
as Bitmap.
The selected titles download to MusicPad Manager on your computer or directly to
your MusicPad Pro tablet.
If you downloaded the scores using MusicPad Manager, use the File Manager to
move them to your MusicPad Pro tablet. For information about using File Manager,
see "Using the File Manager" on page 47
When you choose the Download option to download a file, you can transpose the file.
In addition, the file has a MIDI file associated with it so you can play it back through
your speakers.
When you choose the Download as Bitmap option to download a file, the file is in the
"traditional" FreeHand format. This file has the same format as a file that you imported
from a graphics image. This means that you cannot tranpose it or listen to a MIDI
playback of it.
The only reason to use the Download as Bitmap option instead of the Download option
is if you find that a transposable file takes too long to turn the pages on your MusicPad
Pro tablet. You should experiment with this and determine whether you need the
transposition capability or the performance improvement. Then choose the option that
works best for you.
