Using pitch markers in the Track view

Pitch markers change the pitch at which Groove clips sound. All Groove clips in Music Creator that have the Follow Project Pitch option enabled adjust their pitch as they encounter pitch markers in Music Creator. If there are no pitch markers, all Groove clips play at the default project pitch, unless the Follow Project Pitch parameter is disabled.

A. Pitch marker: Groove clips with Follow Project Pitch enabled play with the Root Note transposed to C B. Time Ruler C. Pitch marker: Groove clips with Follow Project Pitch enabled play with the Root Note transposed to D

To enable a clip’s Follow Project Pitch option

1.	Select the clip and open the Clip Inspector.

2.

Select the Clip Inspector’s Groove Clip section and make sure that the Reference Note field is correct. When your project reaches a pitch marker, Music Creator transposes each groove clip that has the Follow Project Pitch option enabled by the difference between the clip’s Reference Note and the current Project Pitch.

To change your project’s default pitch

Go to Project > Set Default Groove Clip Pitch and specify the default pitch.

Music Creator transposes each groove clip that has the Follow Project Pitch option enabled by the difference between the clip’s Reference Note and the current Project Pitch. Your project’s pitch changes wherever you insert a pitch marker. If you don’t insert any pitch markers, your project stays at its default pitch.

1.	In the Track view, right-click in the Time Ruler.

2.	Select Create a Marker from the menu that appears.

4.	In the Groove Clip Pitch drop-down, select a pitch.
