Adding interval without numpad?

Postby posssu » Wed Feb 03, 2010 6:38 pm

How to add an interval to many notes without a numpad? I have Apple Wireless keyboard and it doesn't have a numpad...

On my MacBook I press *fn*: it turns the number' row into a numpad.
I guess it works for any keyboard that misses a physical one.
It seems that up to .239 you can't add every interval you need. Surely works with octaves up
Maybe they fixed it in .241, but I haven't upgraded the laptop yet.
Hope it helps.
Greetings

If you have an iPhone or iPod touch, you can also use one of the many "virtual numpads" out there.
I personally find it quite handy :)

Heh, nice idea! Unfortunately I don't own an iPhone (anymore).
