Autoscroll is a feature on Online Sequencer that automatically scrolls the music playback window as the playhead progresses. It provides a convenient way to follow along with the composition. There are three autoscroll settings available: smooth scroll, fast scroll, and off.

  1. Smooth Scroll: With smooth scroll enabled, the music playback window smoothly scrolls once the playhead reaches the end of the screen. The scrolling motion is gradual, providing a seamless transition as the composition plays.
  2. Fast Scroll: Fast scroll snaps the music playback window to the next part as the playhead advances. This setting allows for quick navigation through the composition, instantly displaying the upcoming sections without any scrolling animation.
  3. Off: The "Off" setting disables autoscroll. When autoscroll is turned off, the music playback window remains stationary, and no automatic scrolling occurs. This option is useful for manual scrolling or when focusing on a specific section without distractions.

To adjust the autoscroll settings, locate the autoscroll controls at the bottom of the sequencer interface. Simply select the desired autoscroll mode: smooth scroll, fast scroll, or off.

Markers can also be used to automate autoscroll. By adding markers to the sequence, you can define specific points where the autoscroll behavior changes. For example, you can set a marker to switch from smooth scroll to fast scroll at a certain measure. This provides greater control and customization options for the autoscroll feature.
