Buying and Registering MidiIllustrator

Editing the Score
- Can I add lyrics?
- Is it possible to delete rests in the notation?
- How do I add, delete or move individual notes in the score? Is there a version which would allow this?
- The score looks & sounds odd after I converted it using the 'Two Hand Piano' Task. Why is that?
- How do you change the size of the font used to identify the notes (note names)?
- How do I adjust the time signature?
- How do I lower notes a whole octave? I play cello and want to print out music in the middle octave. Can this be done?
- I recorded a piece to MIDI in 3/4 time on my digital piano, but when I printed it out in MidiIllustrator, it was scored in 4/4 time. Why is that, and how do I change the time signature?
- I have a score which was originally composed in another program and saved as a MIDI file. When viewed in MidiIllustrator some (but not all) of the original treble clef guitar staves (for notating classical guitar music) are printed with a bass clef. Why is that?
- Is there any way that I can combine a series of pieces so I can set my computer/MIDI piano to play them? Is there a playlist facility, or a file merge function?
- How do I print the MIDI file in lead sheet or fake book format?
- Can I split or join measures?
- Are there any editing features which MidiIllustrator Maestro does not yet offer?

MIDI Files, Playback and Sound
- Where can I find MIDI files?
- I have connected my MIDI piano keyboard to the computer. Can I automatically play along using the instrument sound on a particular track? Right now, it always plays the instrument from 'Echo Instrument' setup.
