Markers are labels that are locked to a particular position in time; for example, they can indicate an important moment in a video that requires musical prominence. Composers often use them to help shape the writing process.

Section Markers

Section markers in the score display

You can display markers as section markers or musical markers, in the score. For this to work, you must set the marker track to a musical timebase.

Section markers are markers that are primarily used for visual organization and navigation in the score. They allow you to label specific sections of your score or your lead sheet, such as “Verse” and “Chorus” or “A” and “B”. This is useful for structuring your music and makes it easier to follow during playback. Section markers do not affect playback in Cubase.

Note

The Default Text Font option that is selected on the Fonts page of the Score Settings dialog is used.
