To change the maximum position of the triangle curve or the pulse of the
square curve in Triangle and Square mode, press [Shift]-[Ctrl]/[Command].
This creates sawtooth curves.
You can also set the curve period freely by holding down [Shift] when you
insert events in Sine, Triangle, or Square mode. Activate Snap, [Shift]-click
and drag to set the length of one period. The period length will be a multiple
of the quantize value.
Paint Mode
In Paint mode, you can draw in multiple notes.
The quantize value determines the density of created controller curves. For very
smooth curves, use a small quantize value or deactivate Snap. However, this
creates a large number of MIDI events, which can cause MIDI playback to stutter in
some situations. A medium-low density is often sufficient.
Editing Events using the Draw Tool
You can draw and edit events in the controller display with the Draw tool. The Draw
tool has the same functionality as the Line tool in Paint mode.
To change the velocity of a single note, click on its velocity bar and drag the
bar up or down.
NOTE
When you move the pointer inside a controller lane, the event type value
changes corresponding to the pointer movement. The event type value is
displayed below the event type name, left of the controller display.
Using Continuous Controllers
When a continuous controller is selected for a controller lane, additional data is
displayed on the controller lane. This is due to the fact that MIDI controller data can
be recorded or entered either for an automation track or for a MIDI part.
If automation data already exists for a controller, this is indicated by an asterisk that
is displayed next to the controller name on the Controller Selection and Functions
pop-up menu.
If the automation data is controller data that you have entered in a MIDI editor, the
data is displayed on the controller lane. If the controller data was recorded on an
automation track in the Project window, no events are displayed on the controller
lane.
