Title: How to get a tune to stop
Post by: Alstermark on July 10, 2008, 18:12:42
Hi!

I´m a new member, and I haven´t been tracking for so long. As a beginner, I wonder how I get a certain tune to "stop". When you don´t have any following tunes (notes) in a channel, the last tune (note) will just continue to be heard, as a long, disturbing noise. I therefor would like to know how to break the sound where I want the channel to be silent.

I would be very thankful for an advice!

You can stop a tune from playing by pressing the stop button (shortkey F8)

I suspect however that you don't mean stop the tune, but the note playing.

You can do this by either placing a note-cut (^^^) or a note-off (===).

I'm not entirelly sure what the shortkey is for this button, but if you can look that up in the setup. If you use the impulse tracker keys, then it are 1 = note-cut, `/~ = note-off
