Thanks to Presonus for great soft- Notion Mobile is the first notation one I feel comfortable with iPad, but unfortunately I could not get how to enter triplets, and found nothing in online manual. I would be grateful for help!

Two ways –
1) select the notes you want in a tuplet, then tap ‘Make Tuplet’ in the context menu (or Cmd+T) 2) If you have a keyboard attached, then use Opt+2-9 to select the tuplet value then the duration you want, and then tap the notes in.

ChrisS23 wroteTwo ways – ----- But without an external keyboard, there's now literally no way to enter multiple bars of eighth note triplets in Notion Mobile, right? You can't group notes across a bar line into tuplets, so the last couple in each bar can't be changed, as far as I can tell. Not to mention that it's _much_ easier to simply set the note value to triplets, prior to entering them... I'm hoping this is an oversight that will be repaired; mostly I use the app (which I've loved for years) to transcribe jazz solos, so getting back my triplets would be appreciated . |
[quote="exiygevu"]You can do following steps to enter triplets:
I'm fairly certain this is not true, for the case I'm describing (and have read others' similar reports on the forums). Specifically: 1. Enter 12 eighth notes, across one and a half bars of 4/4. 2. Select the first 3, choose "Make Tuplet". 3. Repeat with the second 3. You now have two groups of eighth note triplets and two eighth notes in the first measure, 4 in the next. Not to mention this is a crazy way to enter triplets . 4. Select the next 3 eighth notes (2 in the first measure, 1 across the bar line). The Make Tuplet option is not available when you straddle a bar line. Even if you keep converting to triplets, then adding eighth notes directly to the current measure, you're always going to end up with 2 standard eighth notes left over. My description sounds complicated, but if you try to actually enter full measures of triplets you should quickly see the problem. |
To make 4 measures of quarter-note triplets on my iPad (no keyboard) I had to first erase all the bar lines then enter all quarter-notes, then select each group of three, one group at a time, convert each to triplets, then re-insert all the bar lines. If there’s another way I could not find it. Why not a simple “enter triplets” tool on the palette as in the old version??!!!!!?!??
