Rests, Bar Repeat Signs

Automatic Rest Display

Rests are displayed automatically in Logic, in such a way that existing notes and

automatic rests together always add up to complete bars, according to the given time

signature. The only exception to this is, when a Score Style with deactivated rest display

(hide Rest) or with Beat Slashes instead of rests is used.

Manually Inserted Rests

In certain situations, you might want to insert rests manually. These replace the

automatic rests, but unlike automatic rests, are listed as events in the Event List. These

events have a MIDI channel and a velocity value.

The velocity value determines their vertical position in the staff (normal middle

position is 64).

Manually inserted rests, unlike automatic rests, can be moved higher or lower. Their size

can be changed with the Sizing tool.

You can also use manually inserted rests (also called “User Rests”), if you don’t like the

way a particular rest is displayed automatically, for example to avoid dotted rests, or for

syncopated display of rests despite a Syncopation off (see “Syncopation” on page 527)

setting. In terms of rhythmic display, user rests behave like notes, with the attributes

Syncopation ON and Interpretation off (see “Interpretation” on page 526). Remember

that user rests are interpreted according to the display quantize setting (Qua (see “Qua

(Display Quantization)” on page 524)), just as notes are.

Multi Bar Rests

Rests with a duration of several bars, can be indicated with these two symbols. These

are suitable mainly for single instrument parts. In the full score, they are visible only

when all staves contain multi bar rests at the same position.
