How can you hear the written chords?
With Pizzicato,
you can write chords symbols on the score. To hear these chords,
they must be transcribed on a staff, which is quite easy to
achieve. Add a new staff that will receive the notes of the chords.
Then select this empty staff and go the the "Edit"
menu, "Chords...", "Convert chords into
notes...". A dialog appears, giving you several options on
the notes that will be used, rhythms... Type F1 (or the Mac Help
key) to have a full explanation of these options or consult the
user manual in the help menu, in the lesson regarding the chords
symbols. When you click on OK, the notes appear on the staff.
Note that you can also create a bass line on another staff. Use
the same dialog and within the usable notes, select only the
bass, in a low range (C-1 to G-2 for instance).
