are moved to make room for the inserted note event or chord.

Using the Controller Display
The Controller Display displays the controller events. By default, the controller
display has a single lane that shows one event type at a time. However, you can add
as many lanes as you need. The use of several controller lanes allows you to view
and edit different controllers at the same time.
Each MIDI track has its own controller lane setup (number of lanes and selected
e
vent types). When you create new tracks, they get the last used controller lane
setup.
The controller display with three lanes.
• To add a controller lane, click the Create Controller Lane button or open
the Controller Se
lection and Functions menu and select Create Controller
Lane.
• To remove a controller lane, open the Controller Selection and Functions
pop-up menu and select Remove this Lane.
This hides the lane from view. It does not affect the events in any way.
