Using MicNotator with Simple Entry

Make sure you’ve set up the MicNotator for your instrument. See Setting Up MicNotator. You’ll be using the Simple Entry Caret to do this. For more details, see Simple Entry.

1. Click the Simple Entry Tool  .
2. From the Simple menu, choose Use MIDI Device for Input.
3. From the Simple menu, choose Simple Entry Options, and ensure Use Simple Entry Caret is checked. Then click OK. The Simple Entry Caret appears.
4. Click or use the arrow keys to place the caret where you would like to start entering notes.  
5. Choose the duration of the note you want to enter (by clicking a duration icon or pressing its corresponding keystroke). See Keycuts-Simple Entry Tool for details.
6. Play the notes on your instrument. Each note you play appears in the document of the duration selected. Use keystrokes to quickly change durations between notes. It’s safe to outplay Finale, too; it will remember up to 500 notes (and continue to notate them as fast as your computer allows). To record notes without help from the computer keyboard to specify duration, use the HyperScribe entry method (see below).
