Note to self – Jamming with Notator 3.21
To use Notator 3.21 for ATARI for loop based jamming:
- Set Arrange to off
- Check [Flags]->[Screen Record]
- Uncheck [Flags]->[Record Cycle Overdub]
- Uncheck [Flags]->[Punch Cycle Overdub]
- Set MIDI Thru On
- Be aware that Thru only seems to affect the currently selected track if you are in RECORD mode. To switch to RECORD mode, right-click on [DROP]
Loop RECORD: Press START and toggle RECORD mode with right-click on [DROP].
Be aware that this can affect note playback as notes may be cut off while disengaging RECORD mode.
To delete a track you no longer use, drag&drop it onto the arrange window.
