When the eraser tool is selected, notes can be removed by simply clicking on them.
Keyboard shortcut: E
You can also delete selected notes by selecting a group of them with the select tool, and
clicking the delete midi notes button in the properties panel.
Keyboard shortcut: DELETE or BACKSPACE.
The Velocity Editor
In addition to the velocity editing functions provided by the vel control, and through the note proper-
ties, you can also use the velocity editor, which is available by selecting the velocity option from the
MIDI editor tool-bar, or pressing the V key. Figure 4.4.2 shows the velocity editor.
Each note has a vertical velocity line. The taller the line is, the higher the velocity. Editing velocities is
as simple as clicking on them with either the pencil or selection tool, at the level you wish them to be.
The line tool can also be used to draw velocity ramps (Figs. 4.4.4 and 4.4.5). Note that the eraser
tool has no effect when applied to velocities.
If you wish to edit only the velocities of certain notes, just select those notes with the selector
tool (Fig. 4.4.6). The velocities of any notes not selected will now be xed.
