fitting ties into a measure 2007-08-31 07:43 pm In order to fit the tie notes into a measure I have to decrease the prior half note to a double dotted quarter note, then I can add the four 64th duration tie notes to the second half-notes chord in the measure. But I notice in the NWC composition "Caverns" measure 40, there is a half note and a half note chord with the 5 tie notes in the measure. What am I doing wrong? I even removed the ties from the tie notes in Caverns, but it still plays properly and I also changed the duration of the tie notes and it still sounds the same. Quote Selected

There is no standard for the duration of a grace note (or from where it gets time). If you need playback to be something else, see: Print Group and Play Group Quote Selected
