For some reason, no matter which grace note I select (8th, 16th, 32nd, etc.), the interval always sounds the same, and it's not very tight: there's a fractional but noticeable pause between the grace note and the main note--more so than (I think) there should be.
Is there a way to shorten the time between the sounding of the grace note and the sounding of the main note? |
I tried hitting the tab key to show the note lengths and adjusting the timing of the grace notes that way, but frankly I can't tell if it has any effect. You might give it a shot.

Feature request time, I guess.

Yes! Beyond using a common slur I've found in Notion 5 many different ways to alter the "grace note" and the way it sounds during playback. These note edits are a little difficult to adjust and unpredictable "yet" it is possible to get better and more realistic playback results. Try some of these edits: Using the "Sequencer Overlay"_
Then change the "grace note" start-time, duration and the same for the note being ornamented ( that follows the "grace note)".
Then, right-click the "grace note" and on the context menu select "Attachment>Hide". Then again adjust the start an duration of the note being ornamented.
Generally the "grace note" is dynamically greater or "louder" than the note being ornamented. There are Custom Rules for Notion "only" instruments that may address this. And, if 3rd party vsti are being used then there should be other options also. Express Edit entry of 'grac" will add "grace" to the Notion 5 cursor for staff placement; however, there is no way to know what it does in a score if anything at this time. Anyways, there are ways to alter the way "grace note" ornamentation's playback. It's just not easy to work with and find the best results. Granted Notion 5 could be better at this. I guess for now I can workaround this issue. There needs to be an easier way though. Some ornamentation's methods are subjective and based on the music content interpretation from the performer is required, IMO. ,Newberry |
Correct me if I'm wrong.
I believe that a "grace note" that falls(begins) on the beat is called an "Appoggiatura". There are long and short Appoggiatura [Quarter -Eighth- Sixteenth etc...(Notion 5 doesn't seem to support. And! I believe a "slurred grace note" -begins- before the beat. Also not functional in the way I'd think it would work. This looks ugly, is an incorrect way to write this and! it also doesn't even playback as might be expected. Since that doesn't work, as a workaround shortening the note that precedes a "grace note" and then shifting the start-time of the "grace note" to me produces a "slurred grace note" as an alternative to the Notion default grace note(appoggiatura). To get a connected smooth sound between the "grace note" and the note it is ornamenting setting the velocities, start-times and durations can truly help. ,Newberry |

Hi John Can you elaborate on how the velocity of Grace Notes can be edited I'm using Notion 6 and compose classical piano with 32nd grace notes (Arpeggio type) in the left hand and find the velocity very low Thanks Andrew |
