Quote:
Can I do this for just one instrument? For example. I have a track where all is good, except that the guitar plays on all four beats of the bars. For one section I would like the guitar just to hit on the 1 and the 3.

If I understand your basic need, you can use either a power chord (..) or a held note (...) and exclude the other instruments from the "push" action, for example:

STYLE: _LAOIS.STY
PARTS: Bass, Drums, Guitar, Cello (strings)

ENTRY: ^C...bds
RESULT: This will do several things:
1. Will push (^) the guitar's C-chord to the left in the music 1/8th note. Giving it that "anticipated" feel.
2. Will hold the guitar chord (...) until the next notation.
3. Will ONLY push the guitar, and exclude the Bass, Drums, and Cello from the push action.

GUITAR ON 1 and 3
Power Chord Option:
Code:
G..bds | C..bds

Held Chord Option:
Code:
G...bds | C...bds


GUITAR ON the "&" of 1 and 3 (anticipated)
Power Chord Option:
Code:
^G..bds | ^C..bds

Held Chord Option:
Code:
^G...bds | ^C...bds


GUITAR ON the "&" of 2 and 4 (anticipated)
