Video Tutorial: Pacer Bars and SaftiesUpdated a month ago

In most Show Files you will see a reduced score in the top interface window. But sometimes a simpler approach is better.  In those cases we use a combination of Pacer Bars and Safties.

A Pacer Bar replaces a score. It is basically a green bar that scrolls from right to left in the score window. The end of each Pacer Bar is the end of a phrase or a section in the music. The operator adjusts the Tempo Slider so that the Spacer Bars line up with the general form of the music, phrase by phrase instead of note by note.

Here is a video demonstrating how Pacer Bars work.
