Adding and editing notes in the Piano Roll
You add notes in the Piano Roll view or Inline Piano Roll view by first choosing a note duration in the
Control Bar’s Tools module and then dragging in the view with the Smart tool or Freehand tool at the
pitch location and time location where you want the note to go. The pitch locations are marked by
gray rows for the sharps or flats, and white rows for naturals. Octaves are labeled on the keyboard
display on the left side of the Piano Roll view, and by the MIDI Scale in the Inline Piano Roll view.
You can display different octaves by dragging the vertical scroll bar that’s on the right side of the
Piano Roll view, or by dragging the MIDI Scale in the Inline Piano Roll view. The time locations are
marked by the measure numbers in the horizontal time ruler that’s at the top of the view, and by the
vertical grid lines that mark the beats in the measure. Use the Snap module in the Control Bar to
specify how precisely you can place your notes in time.
You can edit notes by a variety of methods:
• Select notes, and then use editing commands from the
Edit menu, the Process menu, or the
Event Inspector.
• Move single or groups of selected notes with the Select tool.
• Edit the pitch, location, duration, start time, and velocity of individual or groups of selected notes
with the Smart tool or Freehand tool .
• Delete notes with the Erase tool , or by right-clicking with the Smart tool .
