New to Pyware...Some Questions.

Hi everyone!

I am relatively new to pyware, and I have a couple questions.

1) I am writing drill for a tune that has different tempos during it, mainly accelerandos. I searched the forum and did not come up with an answer. Is there a way to reflect the increasing tempo in the drill, and also have it animate correctly?

2) In another tune, there is a section which alternates between 7/8 and 3/4. Again, is there a way to reflect this in the drill/animation.

3) How do I access the percussion dots instead of just using a regular "X"? ( snares that are small black dots, tenors that actually look like tenors)

4) is there a way to place two "X's" on the field to represent the spot where the football is kicked from for a return?

Thanks in advance!

1. When you add audio to the drill you are able to adjust the tempo at which the drill is synced with the space bar.

2. Currently the options we have in regards to pace would be double time, half time, or standard time. There is not an option for 7/8 or 3/4 time.

3. The percussion symbols are available through the 3D Deluxe Font available from Creative Consultation Service at http://www.bandfo.com. There is a separate font that is installed with the software the Pyware Dot Font. These options can be selected in the Document Options under Preferences in the Choose Symbol option.

4. Version 7 has the ability to add a Surface to the Real View that can show these X's. Below is a sample of a high school surface.

If you are marching the 7/8 as 2+2+3 eighth notes, when you are syncing the music to the drill, you tap the space bar at the point in the playback where you want a step to occur.

I never knew you could do this. Thank you for that information! I'm sure it will come in handy.
