I cant get more than 16 bars to place my objects on, it just keeps playing back the same 16 bars so im not able to produce a whole song ie. Intro-Verse-Chorus-Verse-Bridge-Chorus-Outro, this is very annoying as ive explored all options to increase the soze of the field but my objects just go out of view once i try and go over 16 bars, im very new to music production, please help

You will need to zoom out on the arrangement. If you look at the lower left corner of the track arranger, you will see a -, + icon for the horizontal and vertical. This zooms (in or out). You need to zoom out on the horizontal.

Also, if you add in another sample after the last sample, that will also auto-zoom out the project to show you more bars.

I hope this helps out, and Welcome to the world of Music Maker, if you have questions, post them. I use the product and will share what I know gladly, but I recommend posting a general questions instead of contacting me directly, so others can share the information too.

to extend your song, you can do this two ways. 1. copy and paste the object( CTRL+C=copy, CTRL+V=paste) click on the obect, copy it. then move the start bar( the thin red line that moves across the arrangment when you push play) to the end of the object(just click your curser on the bar above the arrange field) then paste it. you can contiue to paste by holding CTRL and pressing V multiple times. 2. in the edit field, click add a new midi object.tell it how many bars, and it will put it at the end of your arrangment. hope this helps you. good luck.

My name is Michael. I like a lot of styles of music. Played with different types of bands. But its the music in the soul that I value most. I'm not a great guitar player but I try to create a good sound that would take you on a short ride away. You can come back when you are ready. Thank you for listening. And call me Mike.
