Tinkerer - Screen

Toolbar:  (hover over buttons for help, buttt...)
      unroll    If a song has repeating sections,
                (marker controls that say where each section starts and
                 section controls - edited in PianoCheater -
                 that order and repeat these)
                This will "unroll" the looped sections into -seperate- markers.
                Handy for recording over a midi file.
                Looped sections mean that when the section is played
                   the second time,
                   but it may ALREADY have recorded events in it.
                   And you'll record "on top" of them again
                   instead of adding a second variation for the track.
                Usually, you have repeating sections so
                   you don't have to retype a section
                   of sheet music (if you're using my Txt2Mid format).
                But once you've loaded the song into Tinkerer,
                   You'll probably want to Unroll that
                   so that you can record a second verse (while in PianoCheater)
                   with a slightly different "twist".

      copy      Copies ALL tracks' events within the clip's bar range
                right in front of the bar that was last hovered over.
                   So you'll hover over the start bar and click [
                   Then, hover over the end bar and click ]
                   Then, hover over the destination bar and click +

      delete    Kills ALL tracks' events within the clip's bar range.
                So you'll hover over the start bar and click [
                   Then, hover over the end bar and click ]
                   Then, click X



Pos: display
      shows current position in time.
      if only 1 track is selected,
         also shows note+onTime+offTime+duration+onVelocity+offVelo
                 or control+onTime+value

Track: droplist
      lets you pick the tracks to display via checkboxes.
      If the track is a Drum track (sound=Drum\*), you'll see a drum grid.
      For melodic tracks, you'll see a piano roll display.
      When you've dropped down the Track: droplist,
         left click to toggle the check.
         right click to pick a single track.  Right click again to pick em all.

      If more than one track is displayed, they'll be overlayed.
      But event editing can only happen when a SINGLE track is picked.

Snap: droplist
      Lets you enter notes at exact times.
      You may want to leave this off when editing events that don't fall on
         exact times (those recorded live, etc.)

Bar: editbox
      lets you scroll left and right by bar in time.
      I usually use the ole mouse scroll wheel when in this field.

Zoom: editbox  (under Bar: editbox)
      lets you compress more time onto the display.
      0 gives you full one "tick" resolution.  (a 256th note triplet)
      1 compresses 2 ticks into 1 pixel.
      2 compresses 4 ticks into 1 pixel...
      Etc...      (powers of 2 city)

Oct: editbox
      lets you scroll up and down by octave.
      (Sets the lowest note in the piano roll display)

Zoom: editbox  (under Oct: editbox)
      lets you compress more piano roll notes on screen.  (drum notes are fixed)
      0..7 for plenty tall/fewer notes .. squished height/more notes

Ctrl: listbox
      lets you pick the controls to display in the line graph at the bottom.
      checks work the same as with Tracks: listbox.

Zoom: editbox  (under the Ctrl: listbox)
      lets you compress more controls onto the display.
      0=full resolution/less controls .. 3=cheezy resolution/more controls

Col: listbox
      lets you color the notes according to velocity, sound or track

Mov: listbox
      picks which track to move right mouse button lasso'd notes to.
      (or to delete em)

VelOn: editbox
      lets you set the note on velocity for drawn in notes
      (described later)

VelOff: editbox
      lets you set the note off velocity for drawn in notes
