So, today I have been working on the documentation for Note Track playback.

1) I generalized references to be Note Track playback and added in references

to playback of Allegro throughout (having tested Allegro playback).

2) I increased the visibilty of Note Tracks by moving their link on the front page

into the "Audacity Foundations" section (out of the "Additional Track types).

3) I decided to move the instructions on enabling Note Track playback with a

There is also a parent page in the Wiki - which is WIP and an orphan for now:
http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Enabling_Note_Track_playback

I decided in the Wiki rather than the manula for two reasons

a) these are platform instructions *not* Audacity instructions

b) it gives us the flexibility to change our advice even after the 2.2.0 Manual is published

4) with the Mac instructions

http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Enabling_Note_Track_playback_on_Mac
I simplified these retaining just the software synth (SimpleSynth) instructions

The IAC driver material, which we appear not to need to enable Note Track playback

6) Note Tracks intro has been updated for playback and generalized to include Allegro
http://alphamanual.audacityteam.org/man/Note_Tracks

7) Note Tracks playback section has been generalized to include Allegro
http://alphamanual.audacityteam.org/man/Note_Tracks#can_do

I commented in a parallel thread about odd changes to the Allegro section.

Cheers,

Peter
