The MIDI editors
The List Editor – Overview
The toolbar
The toolbar contains several items that are the same as in
the Key Editor (edit solo, snap, quantize settings, etc.).
These are described earlier in this chapter. The following
toolbar items are unique to the List Editor:
• The Insert pop-up menu is used when creating new
events.
This is where you determine what type of event to add (see “Inserting
events” on page 207).
• The Mask pop-up menu and Filter view (Show Filter
View button) allow you to hide events from view, based on
their type and other properties.
See “Filtering” on page 208.
• The Value View button can be used for hiding and
showing the Value display (see below).
The List Editor has no info line (numerical editing is avail-
able 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 208).
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 207.
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.). You can
show or hide this display by clicking the “Show List Value
View” button on the toolbar.
