Actions table
The rst column shows the type of action.
The second column controls the rst parameter of the MIDI event. For note events, this
indicates the pitch. For control changes, this indicates the control change number. For
program changes, this indicates the program number.
The third column controls the second parameter of the MIDI event. For note events, this
indicates the velocity. For control changes, this indicates the amount of control change
within the range 0 to 127. Program changes do not have a second parameter so do not
use this column.
You can add new actions of each type and duplicate existing actions using the
corresponding button in the action bar.
You can delete actions by selecting them individually and clicking Delete Action in the
action bar.
The Actions section also allows you to specify which actions affect the start of notes and
which affect the end of notes. For example, you might want an event that resets the
technique back to normal to apply only to the end of notes.
On Events affects the start of notes.
Off Events affects the end of notes.
