In Insert mode, you can input notes before existing notes in a single voice without overriding them. This allows you to push existing notes ahead at the same time as inputting new notes at their previous positions.
Note
-
These steps describe inputting notes with the default preference of duration before pitch. However, you can also specify the pitch before duration instead.
-
You can only input chords in Insert mode when using a MIDI keyboard.
Procedure
Result
Notes are inserted at the caret position or where you click without overwriting any existing notes at rhythmic positions after the caret. Instead, existing notes after the caret are pushed ahead to subsequent rhythmic positions.
The voices and staves affected by Insert mode depend on the Insert mode scope.
