Common MIDI Editor Functions
Channel
The note events get different colors depending on their MIDI channel value.
Part
The note events get the same color as their corresponding part in the Project
window. Use this option if you are working with 2 or more tracks in an editor, to see
which note events belong to which track.
Grid Match
The note events get different colors depending on their time position. For example,
this mode enables you to see if the notes of a chord start at the exact same beat.
Voice
The note events get different colors depending on their voice (soprano, alto, tenor,
etc.).
Chord Track
The note events get different colors depending on whether they match the current
chord, scale, or both.
For all of the options except Part, the pop-up menu also contains a Setup option. This option
opens a dialog in which you can specify the colors that are associated with velocities, pitches, or
channels.
