How to write / shortcuts
The up & down arrows move the note that you want to write. It also works with the letter notation (C D E F G A B)

With the left & right arrow you move the cursor through the times of the measures.

With the numbers you can choose how long will be the note.

You can also make chords selecting another note in one that is alright put.

n--> Add a measure after the actual measure

m--> Add a measure before the actual measure

t--> Attach tide note.

o--> Change the ottava

spacebar--> Fills the compass with silences
