Recording with HyperScribe

When you’re recording a real-time performance using HyperScribe, you can have PrintMusic provide a metronome click.

To record into one or two staves

1. Choose MIDI > Quantization Settings. Adjust the settings, then click OK. See Quantization Settings dialog box for more information.
2. Choose the HyperScribe tool . The HyperScribe menu appears. If your music will have ties from one measure to another (across barlines), select Tie Across Barlines.
3. Choose HyperScribe > Recording Tempo and Click. The Recording Tempo and Click dialog box appears.
4. Click the note duration you would like to use for your beat.
5. Enter the tempo into the Tempo text box.
6. Click Click and Countoff to set up your click and countoff options. For details, see Click and Countoff dialog box.
7. Click OK. You return to the score.
8. Choose HyperScribe > Record Mode > Record into One Staff or Split into Two Staves.

   If you choose Split into Two Staves, the Fixed Split Point dialog box appears. Enter the note that will serve as the split point for the staves. Or click Listen, and play the note on your MIDI device. Click OK.

9. To start recording, click the measure in which you want PrintMusic to begin recording. If you have selected Split into Two Staves, click on the upper staff in which you want recording to begin.
10. Click anywhere on the screen to stop recording. If the quantization or split point settings weren’t quite right, change them; then click the first measure and try the performance again. HyperScribe will overwrite whatever music is already on the staff.

    If you stop in the middle of a measure, PrintMusic automatically fills the rest of the measure with rests. If you’re HyperScribing over an existing passage and accidentally play partway into an existing measure that you wanted to preserve, OPTION-click to end the recording; PrintMusic won’t transcribe the new notes you’ve played in the half-completed measure.
