Personal Composer and MIDI support
Personal Composer reads standard MIDI files, analyzes and displays them in standard notation. The music can then be edited just as if it had been originally created with PERSONAL COMPOSER.
- Music can be saved as a Standard MIDI File.
- Standard dynamic and tempo markings affect MIDI playback.
- Any symbol or text from any font can act as any MIDI message.
- Single-event real-time controllers can be adjusted simply by pointing and pressing plus or minus.
- Smooth transitions of key velocity, real-time controllers or pitch-bend can be generated as a linear change or a curved envelope change, which you shape graphically.
- Real-time, on-screen mixers, showing 20 faders at a time plus a master fader, tempo control, solo and mute on each mixer.
- Mixers can be set up to control key velocity or any real-time controller.

- Supports upto 128 staves and multiple MIDI ports with simultaneous multiple outputs of any musical element.
- Compatible with popular multimedia sound boards.
- Record from a MIDI instrument direct to a staff, while other staves play back over MIDI.
- Solo or mute a staff for playback by pointing and pressing a key.
- A note can be repositioned horizontally without affecting its time, and the note's attack and release times can be changed without affecting appearance.
- Can produce guitar or harp strums and piano arpeggios from easily-read vertical chords, and help create really hot drum tracks.
When recording from the keyboard in real-time or reading Standard MIDI files, you have the option of specifying different quantizations for notation and for MIDI playback.
- Preset up to four timbres (different port and channel combinations) per staff, each accessible to any note of any voice of the staff.
- In a rapid 32nd note passage leading to a half note, you could assign the 32nd notes to a patch with a quick attack time and the half note to a patch of the same instrument but with a slower attack time, all without having to use a MIDI Program change, which cannot respond quickly enough.
- Conventional up/down stems, plus auxiliary voices permitting up to four voices per staff.
- The auxiliary voices can be used to add notational grace note embellishments, or hidden to perform trills, turns, mordents or other effects.
