![]() By playing the keypad using the right hand with, for example, the Alt key UP, notes would be entered. The focus of the first pass is to enter the rhythm correctly. ![]() ![]() My standpoint is that of a musician 'playing' the numeric keypad. Some of the notes would, indeed, be rests and would need to be identified and changed on the second pass from the MIDI keyboard. I am now confused! If I understand you correctly the first pass (using the numeric keyboard) would result in a line of, say, middle-C notes of varying durations without any rest symbols displayed. But it's certainly not out of the question if enough people voice support for this and some motivated programmer decides to tackle it. So between those two facts, I'd say that's why it hasn't been implemented. I don't know that I've seen people arguing for this type of input method, and also it seems that even with the improvement you describe, it's still guaranteed to be twice as slow as the usual method in which you can get the pitch and duration simultaneously. It's six of one, half dozen of the other if the piece is mostly the same rhythmic value (eg, lots of eighth notes), but if the rhythms are more complex, your method is somewhat more efficient because you don't need to type the dummy pitch. ![]() I guess the only difference I can see is that in the method you describe, you *just* press the duration key, whereas in MuseScore, you type than *and* a pitch, even if just a dummy pitch. Not sure how what you are seeing this differing significantly from what you can already do, then - as you say, there is already a "replace pitches" function. ![]()
