Different colored arrows?

drakethelegend · 07-7-2009, 06:48 PM

And what do each mean? Now that the tournament is starting, and there are different colored arrows I want to make sure I know what they mean.

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!

I think they want to know the colors of each arrow.

4th note = red
8th note = blue
12th note = dark purple
16th note = yellow
24th note = light purple
32nd note = orange
*48th note = green
*64th note = teal
192nd note = white

* = May or may not be mixed up.

Actually, white notes are just any note that isn't one of the above. Usually it means 192nd, but it could be a 5th, 17th, 3000th, or any other beat note.

48ths cyan
64ths green

Basically, each new colour of arrows marks the midpoint (or 1/3 and 2/3 points) between the colour before it.

Red notes are on the beat. (4ths, as in 4 notes per beat.) Blue notes are half way between two adjacent red notes. (8ths.) Yellow notes are half way between a red and blue note. (16ths.) Orange notes are half way between yellow and red or yellow and blue. (32nds.) Green notes are half way between orange and red/yellow/blue. (64ths.)

On the other hand, purple notes are at two places between each red note, 1/3 and 2/3. (12ths.) Pink notes take up every spot between red and purple notes that isn't already taken up by blue. (24ths.) Cyan notes take up every spot between adjacent 24ths that aren't already taken up by yellow notes. (48ths.)

Finally, a white note indicates a note placement that does not fall onto 64ths or 48ths.

Except, SM doesn't really snap to anything like that--doesn't it just move it to the nearest snap?
