The MIDI editors
The List Editor – Overview
The toolbar
The toolbar contains several items that are the same as in
the Key Editor. The following toolbar items are unique to
the List Editor:
• The Insert Event Type pop-up menu is used when creat-
ing new events.
This is where you determine what type of event to add (see “Inserting
events” on page 405).
• The List Editor contains an additional value display.
• The List Editor has no info line (numerical editing is
available in the list instead).
Ö If you see an empty or incomplete list of items although
the items are visible in the Key Editor, check if you have ac
-
tivated any filters (see “Filtering” on page 406).
The Filters bar
Similar to the info line and the status line, the Filters bar
can be shown/hidden via the “Set up Window Layout”
button (see
“The status line” on page 378). The Filters bar
allows you to hide events from view, based on their type
and other properties (see
“Filtering” on page 406).
The status line
This is the same as in the Key Editor (see “The status line”
on page 378), except for the Current Note Position op-
tion, which is not available in the List Editor.
The event list
This lists all events in the selected MIDI part(s), in the or-
der (from top to bottom) in which they are played back.
You can edit the event properties by using regular value
editing, see
“Editing in the list” on page 405.
The event display
This shows the events graphically. The vertical position of
an event in the display corresponds to its entry in the list
(i.
e. to the playback order), while the horizontal position cor-
responds to its actual position in the project. This is where
you add new parts or events, drag to move them, etc.
The value display
This display shows the “value” of each event, allowing for
easy viewing and graphical editing. Typically, the value
shown is the “Data 2” or “Value 2” property (amounts to
MIDI controller events, velocity for notes, etc.).
• To show or hide the value display, click the “Set up
Window Layout” button on the toolbar and activate or de-
activate the “Value Display” option.
