At the top and on the left of the Key Editor, the following parameters are available:
Rename Part
You can rename the part by clicking in this field and entering a new name.
Draw Tool
Clicking this button activates the Draw tool that allows you to draw in notes in the Key
Editor.
Step Input
This function allows you to enter instrument data note by note and beat by beat, using
a MIDI keyboard or controller. It is useful for quick entry of instrument parts.
When you activate the step input mode, a blue vertical position line appears. Each
time you press a key, a note is entered at this line. The length of the note is determined
by the grid resolution.
You can use the left and right arrow keys on your keyboard to move the position of the
vertical position line.
Snap
When Snap is activated, all editing operations in the Key Editor snap to the grid. The
grid resolution is determined by the zoom factor. When Snap is deactivated, notes
can be moved and performed freely without snapping to the grid.
Edit MIDI – Transpose
You can change the key of the part by adjusting the transpose value.
• To change the key, click the Transpose value and drag up or down. You can also
double-click and enter a value between -24 and 24.
To the left of the Transpose value, the root key (A, Bb, C#, etc.) of the part is shown.
If this information is not available because there is no key attribute, this field is empty.
Recorded parts show the key that is defined for the project.
Edit MIDI – Ignore Transpose Track
You can make sure that a part does not follow any global transpose changes on the
transpose track by activating “Ignore Transpose Track”.
Edit MIDI – Quantize
You select a quantize value from the “Set Grid Resolution” pop-up menu. This value is
used for all quantize-related functions such as swing and triplets. It also determines
the grid resolution for the Key Editor.
When you activate the “Triplets On” button next to the quantize value, you can enter
triplets in an instrument part. The resolution of the triplets is determined by the
quantize value.
Edit MIDI – Reset Quantize
The “Reset Quantize” button lets you restore the previous grid resolution.
Edit MIDI – Perform Quantize
Click “Perform Quantize” to move all the notes to the nearest bar or beat, depending
on the quantize value. If this is set to quarter notes, all notes are moved to the nearest
quarter note position.
