# Swing-toisto
## Overview
Music in “straight” time is performed strictly as written in the score. By contrast, music in **swing** time interpets straight eigth and sixteenth notes as triplet pairs, with the first of the pair being roughly twice as long as the second. This gives the rhythm a characteristic bouncy feel—often asssociated with Jazz music. e.g.
Swung eighths:
Swung sixteenths:
Rather than notate swung music exactly as performed, it is accepted convention to write it in straight time and simply provide the written indications “Swing and “Straight” at appropriate points in the score.
Swing markings have a playback effect on the score. The default swing ratio is 60% (3:2) but you can vary this to suit the feel of the piece if required.
## Adding a swing or straight marking to your score
### To add a swing marking
1. Klikkaa kohdenuottia tai taukoa
2. Klikkaa **Swing**-tekstiä **Tempo**-paletissa.
Vaihtoehtoisesti voit vetää ja pudottaa **Swing**-tekstin paletista haluamasi nuotin tai tauon päälle.
Voit halutessasi lisätä partituuriin myös [visuaalisen swing-merkinnän](https://musescore.org/en/node/266325).
### To add a straight marking
1. Klikkaa kohdenuottia tai taukoa
2. Klikkaa **Suora**-tekstiä **Tempo**-paletissa.
Note that the above markings are a form of [System text](/fi/text/staff-system-and-expression-text.md) and therefore the playback effect is applied to all staves in the system. If you want swing to apply to only one staff you can use [Staff text](/fi/text/staff-system-and-expression-text.md) instead: see below.
## Changing swing playback
### Adjust the type and degree of swing
1. Klikkaa hiiren oikealla partituurin **Swing**-tekstiä ja valitse **Viivastoryhmän tekstin ominaisuudet**.
2. Muokkaa **Swing-asetukset**-välilehdellä "Swing" ja "Swing-suhde" tarpeen mukaan.
**Huomaa**: Swing-asetukset löytyvät sekä viivastoryhmä- että viivastoteksteistä.
### Apply swing to one staff only
Jos haluat swing-toiston koskevan vain yhtä viivastoa, käytä viivastotekstiä viivastoryhmätekstin sijaan:
1. Valitse kohdenuotti tai tauko.
2. Klikkaa **Viivastoteksti**-merkintää **Teksti**-paletissa.
3. Muokkaa tekstiä haluamasi lopputuloksen luomiseksi
4. Klikkaa tekstiä hiiren oikealla ja valitse **Viivastotekstin ominaisuudet**. Vaihtoehtoisesti voit valita tekstiobjektin ja klikata **Ominaisuudet**-paneelissa **Viivastotekstin ominaisuudet** -painiketta.
5. Muokkaa **Swing-asetukset**-välilehdellä "Swing" ja "Swing-suhde" tarpeen mukaan.
