key change only works for a few bars then reverts

[John Balich]

when I insert a key change it only affects a few bars the reverts back to original key

[Robert Bone]

Can you please detail the steps you are using to insert this?

Is this affecting staff view?  Otherwise, a key change doesn't really do anything for you.

Or, do you mean a transpose?

Press ALt-Shift-6 and see if you have another key change event later in the time line, setting it back

[John Balich]

I select "project" and then "insert key change". THE KEY IS CHANGED BUT after a couple of bars the old key signature returns...I have to scroll through the entire song countermanding any of the original  key changes 

Yes I can check the event line.........….very laborious to change every time it changes...maybe two bars at a time.

 

and no, transpose not what I am looking for, but thanks

Kewl - I had just wanted to make sure I understood what was happening - never saw key changes revert like you had described, and when I tested that out in a new project, where I recorded about 30 seconds of soft-synth piano, then inserted a couple of key changes, then looked at the Meter/Key-Change events, everything looked OK, so I thought I would ask - in case I had misunderstood.

Glad you are sorted out,
