MIDI editor: Editing fields
Editing selected events (editing fields): The properties of every event in the piano roll,
drum editor, controller, and listen editor can also be edited with the editing fields under the
editing tools. The following buttons are available for each note:
 Channel
 Pitch (byte 1)
 Velocity (byte 2)
 Starting time in bars:beats:ticks
 Length in bars:beats:ticks
The display of the ticks has a resolution of 384 PPQ. 384 ticks correspond to a quarter
note.
Hold the left mouse button in the desired field and drag upwards or downwards to increase
or decrease the value. The value steps are greater if you press "Ctrl".
This value may also be edited numerically with the keyboard. Double click in the editing
field you wish to change and enter the value via the keyboard.
A few special properties result when multi-selecting events:
For the "Pitch" and "Level" parameters, you can change the values relatively by dragging
with the mouse, or by entering the values numerically and then confirming with "Enter". You
can make absolute changes for all selected events by simultaneously holding "Shift" while
dragging with the mouse in the editing field, or by finishing the entry process with "Shift +
Enter".
For the "Time" and "Length" parameters, you can change the values relatively by double
clicking the desired value field and then confirming with the mouse wheel.
Note: MIDI channel changes are always permanent for multiple selections.
