Default Re: Recording notes into Composer

Hi David,


I'm wondering if for the "holding notes too long" issue if using a different instrument like a horn (eg. trumpet) might be helpful in giving better feedback to the user while recording. Piano is a percussive instrument and while it does "hold" notes, it's not as obvious if it's held too long as maybe a trumpet or organ sound would be.

I am thinking there must be something there that tries to follow the flow of the musical line in doing the transcription.
This is correct. In fact, it used to bother Mark to no end that people wanted a definitive split at some particular note pitch. He worked really hard to have Composer be "more intelligent" in splitting the hands, even though he knew it was not perfect.



Thanks for the insights!


ttfn,
Sherry
