Slice functionality settings
To edit a slice’s functionality settings, open the slice settings and click the “Functionality” tab.
These settings can only be edited by customers in a paid plan.
Here’s what the screen looks like:
“Enable printing”
This checkbox, off by default, lets you make the Print function available to anybody viewing your slice.
If you check the box, then the slice will have a “Print” button in its settings menu. Anybody viewing that slice will then be able to get a PDF by clicking that button. This button will be available as long as you’re actively in a paid plan.
Note: As the slice owner, you can always print the slice via the Export PDF feature — without needing to enable this checkbox.
“Enable synth overlay”
This checkbox, off by default, lets you enable synth overlay for anybody viewing your slice.
“Disable synthetic playback”
This checkbox, off by default, lets you disable synthetic playback.
If you check the box, then the slice will not display “Synthetic” in its list of recordings. This feature is used by people who have added at least one real recording and find the synthetic playback distracting or irrelevant for their particular music.
Note: If you disable synthetic playback in a slice with zero recordings, there will be no way to play back your music! Use this feature with care.
“Enable lyrics-only shortcut”
(You will only see this checkbox if your slice contains at least one instrument that has lyrics.)
This checkbox, off by default, lets you opt in to displaying a “Lyrics-only” shortcut in the slice’s controlbar. See here for information on lyrics-only mode.
