Title: No time Signature
Post by: FrankSit on 2022-07-27 02:26 am
Hello,,
In the attached there is no time signature, and what is the meaning of like C, is that like time signature 4/4?. My 2nd question what is Andante is that just inserted tex or dynamic variance.

Thank you for any help.

Frank

The c is actually a time signature. It means Common Time, which is the same as 4/4. In Noteworthy, it can be set using Insert > Time Signature, and selecting a Style of Common Time.  Also, Andante is a tempo marking, usually measured at 76 to 108 beats per minute. You would have to enter the Tempo as desired, and then add the Andante as text. It is not a dynamic (loudness) or dynamic variance.
