Enter pitches as notes, e.g. A4 or C#5. Arrow keys on curve points change the value; Shift + arrow changes the climb rate.
Switch-off thresholdsSet automatically. Only for fine-tuning.
Separate on and off thresholds prevent constant switching as the climb rate fluctuates.
The tone thresholds are copied too. The app only applies them if you choose so during import.
