Destination
Lets you select the destination track
for the Step Input from a pop-up list of all the
MIDI tracks in your session.
Step Increment
The options in the Step Increment section let
you set the spacing and duration of MIDI events
entered using the Step Input operation. You can
select any size from whole notes to sixty-fourth
notes (including dotted values).
Tuplet
Lets you input irregular note groupings
(such as triplets or quintuplets). The tuplet
length is calculated from the note spacing selec-
tion and the Tuplet values. For example, an
eighth note equals 480 ticks, so tuplet eighth
notes with 3 in time of 2 would yield a note
spacing of 320 ticks (480 ticks / 3 * 2).
Note Length
Lets you select the note length as a
percentage of the spacing value. For example, an
eighth note equals 480 ticks, so an eighth note
with an 80% duration would be 384 ticks long.
Options
Use Input Velocity
When selected, MIDI notes
are recorded using the velocity that you play on
your MIDI keyboard.
Set Velocity To When selected, MIDI notes are
recorded with the velocity that you specify in
the Velocity field. This value can be set with the
Velocity slider.
Enable Numeric Keypad Shortcuts
When se-
lected, Step Input options can be selected from
the numeric keypad. See “Numeric Keypad
Shortcuts” on page 823.
Undo Step, Next Step, and Redo Step
Use the
Undo Step
and
Next Step
buttons to do
the following:
• Move the step insertion point, by either re-
moving the previous note or by advancing
the insertion point by the Step Increment
value.
• Lengthen and shorten notes that are being
held on the MIDI controller, by adding or
removing Step Increment values. The Step
Increment value can be changed mid-note
to create a note with a hybrid note length.
Use the
Redo Step
button to sequentially redo
any previously undone steps.
Undo Step
When the previous note has been re-
leased from the MIDI keyboard, and the inser-
tion point has moved forward to the next note,
Undo Step removes the entire last note.
When a note is being held on the MIDI key-
board,
Undo Step changes to read “Decrement,”
and removes the last Step Increment length that
was added to the held note.
Next Step (or Increment) When no note is being
held on the MIDI keyboard,
Next Step
moves the
insertion point by the Step Increment value, es-
sentially inserting a musical rest.
When a note is being held on the MIDI key-
board,
Next Step
changes to read “Increment”
and adds the Step Increment value to the held
note, increasing its length by the Step Incre-
ment value.
