After you have added one or more instruments to the track, to add a drum sound (note) to the track, click the left mouse button anywhere on the grid. To add a note and control its duration, <li>press the left mouse where you want the note to start, <li>then drag the mouse while holding the left mouse button down, <li>then release the mouse button where you want the note to end. To change a note's properties, move the mouse over the note and click the right mouse button. To remove a note, either click the note with the left mouse button, or press the shift key while clicking the right mouse button on the note. To change a note's start time, drag its left edge. To change a note's duration, drag its right edge. To hear a note's sound without inserting it, click on its name. To remove an instrument from the grid, right-click on the instrument's name and select Hide Sound from Grid. To insert a rest at the current position, click the button with the rest symbol. To select notes for Cut, Copy, or Paste, <li>press the left mouse button anywhere on the Selection Bar to the right of the track's yellow-highlighted name, <li>slide the mouse on the bar to the end of the range of notes you want to select, and <li>release the mouse button. <img src="LoopImg1.jpg"> If you want to repeat a sequence of notes several times, <li>select the notes on the Selection Bar as described above, <li>select Repeat selected notes in a Loop from the Edit menu. You can then cause this set of notes to be played anywhere in the song, by clicking to the right of the loop's name the same way you would play a single note. To change how many times the set of notes gets repeated, right-click the note (labeled Loop's Repeat properties in the diagram above), and select the Properties menu item. To change the sequence of notes in the new loop, you need to first make it active. To make the new loop active, click where it says hint: click here to make this loop active. You can tell that it is the active loop because its name, Loop1, is hilighted in yellow. Now that it is active, you can add notes, or edit it the same way you would edit the track's notes in any of ways described above. To rename the loop, right-click on the yellow-highlighted Loop1, and select Rename Loop. You can also create a loop by following these steps. <li>press the Add Sounds button. <li>press the Loops tab. <li>press the Create Loop button. <li>press the OK button. To control which loops are visible on the screen, press the Show Loops button. To add sampled audio sounds to your rhythm track, <li>press the Add Sounds button, then <li>press the Audio Samples tab, then <li>press the Edit Samples button.
