Global swing

Swing

The Swing tracks provide efficient ways to create swing.

There are two types of swing tracks in the editor:

  1. The global swing track.
    • Position: To the right of the "LZ" track. (See first picture.)
    • Task: Apply swing to all tracks in a block.
  2. Swing subtracks.
    • Position: To the left of note text. (See second picture.)
    • Task: Apply swing to individual tracks, overriding the global swing track for that track.
    • How to enable: Right-click inside a track and enable "Swing text".

Swing text entry format: xxt, where
    
xx  = Swing weight. 1 = lowest weight, 99 = highest weight.
  t = Whether to gradually change tempo between the current and the next swing weight.

If t is " " (empty), the change happens gradually.
If t is "|", the change happens immediately.

Press T to switch between the two modes.
