Including Non-Note MIDI Events

Turn on the Functions > Include Non-Note MIDI Events setting to tie other data (such as
pitch-bend, modulation, aftertouch, or poly pressure) in a region to the region’s notes.
This may be useful when a region contains note-related controller data that you want to
copy or move.

Changing Note Length in the Piano Roll Editor

You can use the Pointer, Finger, or Pencil tool to alter note lengths.

Tip: It’s advisable to use the Pointer or Finger tool, as these avoid the accidental creation
of new notes, which is possible with the Pencil tool.

To alter the end point (and length) of a note

µ

Position the Pointer, Finger, or Pencil tool over the lower-right edge of a note event, then
drag when the tool icon changes to the length change icon.

A help tag informs you about the precise end point and length of the note while dragging.

Tip: It can sometimes be difficult to grab the bottom-right corner of very short notes. In
this situation, you should use the Finger tool, which allows you to grab notes anywhere,
in order to alter their end point (and therefore, length).
