SNAP
The Piano Roll has a dedicated Snap control, allowing editing and movement of
notes to exact measure and beat positions. All piano roll note sizing and movement
operations conform to the Snap value setting. If you’re unable to move or resize a note,
try turning off (or lowering the note value of) the Piano Roll Snap.
COPY, CUT, PASTE AND CLIPBOARD OPERATIONS
Notes or groups of notes may be cut, copied, or pasted as with any other data. You can
use the keyboard shortcuts, or simply right-click on the Piano Roll editor and select
the appropriate operation. Once you copy, cut, or paste notes, the notes reside in the
clipboard. Notes may be pasted at the current Caret location.
ALT+DRAG QUICK COPY
Holding down the ALT key and dragging selected sounds copies the selected sounds
and moves them to the new position.
LOOPING CLIPS
As with Audio Clips, the Loop Start and Loop End points of MIDI Virtual Instrument
Clips can be set to make clips loop. Specifically, this means the area of the clip that
plays back can be smaller than the area containing MIDI notes. To move a loop point,
click and drag the Loop Start or Loop End point and drag.
For example, if we’d like to make a loop from measure 1.3 to measure 2.1 Here’s what
we start with:
Drag the Loop Start point to measure 1.3:
