Transpose 4/4 Melody & Soloist to Waltz
You can automatically transform any 4/4 song/melody to a Waltz 3/4 feel. To use this
feature, load in any song in 4/4 time. Then load in a Waltz style. If there’s a Melody (or
Soloist) present, you’ll be asked if it’s OK to change the Melody from 4/4 to 3/4. If you
click YES to that, the transformation will occur and you can listen to the Melody in 3/4
time.
If you click NO to the offer to transform the Melody, you can still convert it later by
choosing Melody | Edit | Utilities | Transform 4/4 to 3/4. Note that if you choose the
manual command, the Melody prior to transformation should have 8 beats before bar 1
beat 1 of the Melody begins (as it normally would in a 4/4 style)
Soloist Menu
Generate and Play a Solo... opens the Select Soloist dialog where a preset Soloist style
can be selected or your own Soloist can be defined.
Start a Soloists File… allows you to make and edit Soloist styles saved under the
filename of your choice. See Soloist Edit dialog for additional details on
importing/exporting/saving Soloists.
