Changing the playback duration of arpeggios individually

You can change the duration of individual arpeggios in playback.

The duration of arpeggios is expressed as a fraction of the notated rhythm of chords. For example, an arpeggio on a quarter note (crotchet) chord with a note offset value of 1/2 lasts an eighth note (quaver), whereas with a note offset value of 1/8 it lasts a 32nd note.

Procedure

  1. Select the arpeggio signs whose playback offset you want to change.
  2. In the Properties panel, activate Note offset in the Arpeggios Playback group.
  3. Change the playback offset of the selected arpeggio signs by changing the value in the value field.
  4. Press Return.

Result

The playback duration of the selected arpeggios is changed. This overrides your project-wide settings for the duration of arpeggios for the selected arpeggios.
