Audio Setup
How to get there
From the MIDI menu, choose Device Setup > Audio Setup.
What it does
This dialog box allows you to set up options
for the MicNotator feature. With MicNotator, PrintMusic converts the pitch
you play in a microphone into a MIDI note when you use Speedy Entry or
HyperScribe. Check the Enable MicNotator box to use the MicNotator feature
in Speedy Entry and HyperScribe. You should use the levels meter to fine-tune
your microphone input. For more details, see MicNotator.
- Levels:
Mic Level · Input Meter. When you play into the microphone, you’ll
see colored bars in the Input Meter, indicating how loud PrintMusic heard
you. Adjust the Mic Level slider to change your microphone input levels
so that your loudest note doesn’t hit the red levels. If the levels are
too “hot,” the distortion will impair MicNotator’s pitch recognition.
- Enable
MicNotator. Check this box to use the MicNotator feature to convert
pitches recorded through the microphone to MIDI notes that PrintMusic
can transcribe into notation in Speedy Entry or HyperScribe.
- Recording
Options: Channel • MIDI In Latency. In the Channel text box, specify your input channel. Enter a value in the MIDI-In Latency text box to correct for a delayed response from an external MIDI device during a Recording session. The MIDI latency value compensates for the short delay it sometimes takes for MIDI information to travel from an external MIDI device into the computer.
