"For details, see appendix F". > BTW the main issue I faced was that the scales don't seem to work at all. > (Regardless of the scale selected, all notes produce exactly the > same pitches.) > > Is this a BROKEN FEATURE?? No. At the moment it isn't supposed to do anything more than show you where the scale/chord notes are. The notes will not change unless you click move them around. > 1. Can I select a few notes in a track and then change their scale? No (see below). > 2. Or does LMMS force me to use a SINGLE scale for any given track? Yes, the twelve-tone equal tempered scale, of which all those other available scales are subsets. And then again no, if you use Zyn for the instruments that need other tunings. > 3. Does LMMS allow me to change the scale of a track AFTER I have > added a few notes? Yes. Except that you don't change the scale of a TRACK or some NOTES, you change the scale that is shown in the EDITOR. Think of the scale like guide lines in a drawing program; they are there so you can align your objects to something, but you're still free to put them in between. -- ra...@iki.fi http://www.mikseri.net/radioproject ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
