Settings hold what applies to every score: how playback follows, the sound, the default export and the view a score opens in. What belongs to one score, its style and its tracks, is in the score.

Playback and Audio

Playback

  • Follow Playback Cursor: the score scrolls to keep the bar being played in view.
  • Play Notes on Input: you hear each note as you write it.

Audio

  • Output Volume: how loud Reflow plays, under the device’s own volume.
  • SoundFont: the instruments Reflow plays with. GeneralUser GS is light on memory, MuseScore General richer and much larger; Auto chooses MuseScore General on a device with 4 GB of memory or more, GeneralUser GS below.

Export and Display

Export

  • Guitar Pro Format: Guitar Pro 5 (.gp5) or Guitar Pro 7 (.gp), the one the Export sheet starts with.

Display

  • Default View Mode: how a score is laid out when it opens: Page – Fit Width, Page – Free Zoom, Horizontal (one long line), or Continuous Scroll or Page – Fit to Screen (laid out for the screen, how scores open on iPhone when none is chosen).
  • Magnifier on Drag: the loupe over your finger while you drag on the score. On iPad and iPhone, Magnifier on Drag shows a loupe over the finger while it drags.

Editing

Available on iPad and iPhone.

On iPad and iPhone, how the cursor moves while you write:

  • Portrait Cursor Control and Landscape Cursor Control: Joystick or D-Pad (four arrows), held upright and on its side.
  • Joystick Sensitivity: Low, Medium or High, how far you push before the cursor moves, and how fast it goes.
