Changing the sounding instrument percussion legend range

You can change the rhythmic range of sounding instrument percussion legends to include more/fewer instruments in the legend, as they only show the instruments playing at the rhythmic positions included in the range.

Procedure

  1. In Write mode, select the sounding instrument percussion legend whose range you want to change.
  2. Change the range in any of the following ways, according to the current rhythmic grid value:
    • Press Alt-Right Arrow to move the whole range to the right.

    • Press Alt-Left Arrow to move the whole range to the left.

    • Press Shift-Alt-Right Arrow to lengthen the range.

    • Press Shift-Alt-Left Arrow to shorten the range.

      Note

      When using the keyboard, you can only lengthen/shorten percussion legend ranges by moving the end of the range. You can move the start of the range by moving the whole range or by clicking and dragging the start handle.

    • Click and drag the circular handle at the start/end of the percussion legend to the right/left.

Result

The rhythmic range covered by the selected sounding instrument percussion legend is changed according to the current rhythmic grid value.

The instruments included in the percussion legend are automatically updated to reflect the instruments playing within the range.
