What it does
Before you transcribe a real-time performance, there are a few things
SongWriter needs to know about the music you’re about to play. This menu
lets you make these settings, which have a great deal to do with the quality
of the resulting transcription. Be sure to see also Recording
with HyperScribe.
The Record Mode submenu has commands
for transcribing a performance into a single staff or two staves.
- Recording Tempo and Click. Choose Recording
Tempo and Click to instruct SongWriter to provide a metronome click for
the beat. SongWriter uses the settings for the metronome click sound and
the countoff measures specified in the Click and Countoff dialog box.
For details, see Click
and Countoff dialog box and Recording
Tempo and Click dialog box.
- Record Mode: Record into One Staff · Split
into Two Staves. Choose Record into One Staff to have SongWriter
transcribe your music onto a single staff. Choose Split into Two Staves
to transcribe the music onto two staves at once. SongWriter plays the
click and countoff specified in the Click and Countoff dialog box. See
Click
and Countoff dialog box and Recording
Tempo and Click dialog box.
- Tie Across Barlines. If you anticipate
that you’ll be holding keys down for notes tied over from one measure
to another, select this option (so that a check mark appears). If not,
leave this option unselected. With this option off, SongWriter will never
tie notes over barlines.
