Preparing the Project
You still need to create a track to record your second bass part for the chorus section of
the song. Let’s go ahead and rename the track. Also, it wouldn’t hurt to practice one more
time before recording.
1 Select the Fingerstyle Bass Arpeggiator track if it is not already selected.
2 Press Command-D to duplicate the track.
3 Control-click (or right-click) the new track’s header and choose Rename Track from
the shortcut menu. Type My Arpeggiator Bass in the track’s name field. Press Return
to set the new name.
4 Look at the Smart Controls pane for the new track. Notice that the Arpeggiator set-
tings are already on and ready to go. That’s because duplicating a track also duplicates
the track’s instrument and settings. Did you notice that the new track was soloed
because the track you duplicated had the Solo button on at the time you created the
duplicate track?
5 Press B to hide the Smart Controls pane. Press Command-K to open the Musical Typ-
ing window.
6 Move the Musical Typing window to the empty space at the bottom of the tracks area
where the editors and Smart Controls would be if they were showing.
7 Start playback and practice the part a few more times using the Note Pad as a
reminder of which notes (keys) to play (type) on the Musical Typing keyboard.
