On the topic of the damper pedal, I find the manual a little confusing.
What is the most simple way to indicate when to engage and lift the damper pedal? I want the pedal down at the first of the bar, but then quickly reset when the bass note or chord changes.
When I use the Playing Technique popover and enter ped, it’s hard to indicate exactly when to refresh the pedal and I end up with a lot of pedal lines that are not aligned.
Use Shift + N and then move to wherever in that pedal line you want a lift, then invoke the popover for the pedal and write the symbol ^ and then Enter. You’ll get that pedal lift you want.
