You can input accidentals during note input and by adding them to existing notes. You can also change the accidentals of existing notes. Accidentals that are part of the prevailing key signature are input automatically.
To adjust the default settings for accidentals, use the Accidentals page of the Notation Settings dialog.
Procedure
- Select the notes to which you want to add accidentals or whose accidentals you want to change.
- In the Accidental section of the Note Input toolbar, click the desired accidental.
Result
The accidental is added to the selected notes.
-
During note input, the selected accidental is only input on the next note you input. You must reselect the accidental for each subsequent note.
-
If you input notes using a MIDI device, Cubase automatically shows an accidental if necessary. It selects a sharp, flat, or natural, based on the key signature and the context. You can later respell notes so that they are shown as their enharmonic equivalents, with different accidentals.
