MIDI editor
Notation display, movement, zoom
The MIDI editor features five main areas for editing:
• Matrix editor (piano roll)
• Drum editor (toggle between the drum editor and piano roll optional)
• Controller editor (for example, velocity, MIDI volume…)
• List editor (event list)
• Score editor
Various tools are available, e.g. the pencil or eraser. Exact values for
each MIDI event can also be set in the edit fields via the piano roll.
Fundamentally, changes like moving or deleting notes always refer to
all selected MIDI events (red) with only a few exceptions. Changes to
the selection in a range always apply to every other range as well. For
example, you can select a group of notes in the piano roll and then
change the velocity of these note groups which modifies all selected
notes simultaneously.
Notation display in piano roll and controller editor (with velocity
curves)
Notes which are not selected within the editor are displayed in blue.
The intensity of the color symbolizes the velocity, and the velocity
increases as the color gets darker/stronger.
Selected notes: Multiple selected notes are displayed in red, and a
more intense color symbolizes increased velocity.
Current event: Appears in bright red with a red border. The
properties of the currently selected events are displayed in the edit
fields above the piano roll. If an event is selected with the mouse, it
turns into the current event.
Display of filtered events: You can filter specific events for the
display to get a better overview of the events of a MIDI object.
Example: The MIDI object as notes in the MIDI channels 1, 2, and 5.
You can now make all notes in channels 2 and 5 accessible for the
selection and editing tools via the selection of the MIDI channels in
