like BIAB's notation. I like the way it slices the measure into quarters for you. The only thing that bothers me is that I need to constantly clean up the notes after my first note in each measure because it automatically fills in the complete measure. I know there must be a way to remove that. I just have not had the time to find it.



Mac has posted extensively on this, so you can probably search on it. Basically, the only bar you should ever have to clean up is the last one.

When you enter a note, you get a 7 count note (in 4/4 time). Most people immediately jump into cleanup mode to get it to be just a quarter note, not a whole note tied to a dotted half note (I'm going from memory). BUT, all you need to do is enter the next note where it goes and the first note will automatically be shortened accordingly. Of course, then 2nd note you entered is another long 7-count note. Well, just do the same thing - enter the next note where it goes and that 2nd note gets shortened appropriately. Yes, there are times you need to enter a rest, so just click on the Rest checkmark and click where you want the rest. That too will remove the extra time in one of the long notes. Keep going this way until the end of the song, and then you should only have to shorten the very last note (which you can do with a rest). It works pretty easily and quickly once you get the hang of it.
