Change Audio Format dialog

Use the Utilities > Change Audio Format command if you want to rewrite the audio in a project to

a different bit depth. Your sound card must be capable of playing the project at the new bit depth,

The Change Audio Format dialog box has the following fields:

New Bit Depth

Choose 16, 24, 32, or 64, depending on what audio format you want for this project.

Dither

This choice is available when you are converting to a lower bit-depth. Dithering means to add a

certain audio signal to lower-bit audio to make it sound more like it did as a higher-bit signal.

For more information, see “Bit depths and float resolution” on page 1184; “Improving audio

performance” on page 1181; and “Dithering” on page 936.

Chord Fret Number dialog

When you right-click a chord symbol in the Staff view, the Chord Properties dialog box appears. If

there is a grid in the dialog box and you click to the right of it, the Chord Fret Number dialog box

appears. This dialog box lets you enter a fret number to label the fret where the index finger goes

(Finger 1). Create your grid and finger positions first, then label the index finger fret.
