By default, the Trim tool cuts off the end of notes. To trim the beginning of notes, press
Alt while dragging. When dragged across several notes, a line is displayed. The notes are
trimmed along this line. If you press Ctrl/Cmd while dragging, you get a vertical trim line,
allowing you to set the same start or end time for all edited notes. You can change the Trim
tool key commands in the Preferences dialog (Editing—Tool Modiers page).
Splitting Note Events
● To split the note at the position that you point, select Split, and click on a note.
If several notes are selected, they are all split at the same position. The snap setting is taken
into account.
●
To split all notes that are intersected by the project cursor position, select Edit> Functions>
Split at Cursor.
●
To split all notes that are intersected by the left or right locator at the locator positions, select
Edit> Functions> Split Loop.
Gluing Note Events
You can glue together note events of the same pitch.
● To glue note events, select Glue and click on a note event.
The note event is glued together with the next note event of the same pitch. The result is a
long note event that spans from the start of the
rst note to the end of the second note. The
properties (velocity, pitch, etc.) of the rst note event apply.
Drum Map Handling
When a drum map is assigned to a MIDI or instrument track, the Key Editor displays the drum
sound names as dened by the drum map. This allows you to use the Key Editor for drum
editing, for example, when editing drum note lengths or when editing several parts to identify
drum events.
The name of the drum sound is displayed in the following locations:
● On the info line in the Pitch eld.
● On the status line in the Mouse Value eld.
● In the note event if the zoom factor is high enough.
● When dragging a note event.
Editing Note Events via MIDI Input
You can directly hear your editing results. Editing the properties of note events via MIDI can be a
quick way to, for example, set the velocity value of a note event.
