Hi Chris, Actually, I did answer your question by saying that the only reason you might use a key change is for the spelling of the note names to be correct like naming a note G sharp in the key of E major rather than having it spelled A flat. Further I said if you’re going to export a MIDI file, the key changes would be part of that file.
The macros allow you to move to the various keys that, if you take a look in the Key Change dialog, are invisible. Maybe you should take a look at the dialog and see that there are lists with nothing visible inside those lists. How would you get to one of the items listed there if you can’t see them? Well, the answer is in my previous email. Follow the instructions and you’ll be good to go. > On Oct 16, 2016, at 2:03 PM, Christopher-Mark Gilland <clgillan...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > OK.
