So through the whole song I want these chords to play, but I don't want to play them over and over. I tried copy and pasteing, but The timing is off and I can't ajust it right. Isn't there a way to play a chord and repeat it without copy and pasting and without having to play it. Music maker 2013

Hi,

Here is one way.

Create your midi object and make it perfect, say 2 bars long. Copy the object on the arranger and place it where you want it to repeat in your song. To make a copy, hold down the Ctrl key and drag the object with the left mouse button.

Your timing should be spot on. Make sure that you are in a snap mode - that is the magnet in the top toolbar. Also make sure to quantize (the Q button) in the midi editor.

Also you can use the Pattern tool - look in the installed PDF manual for it use and how to control it - if you have Music maker 2015 it is on page 93.

It does help us help you if you specify which version of Music maker you are using.
