filling.
Fill type:
Constant – fills the same chosen value for the selected steps,
From-To – fills in the selected area, evenly distributing the values within the
chosen range,
Random – randomly chooses the values within the selected range.
A short example on how to efficiently use the Fill tool in a few steps would be to make a
random melody:
Highlight all steps in a track (or tracks) > Shift + Home (Insert) then Shift + Up arrow in
Edit mode on (Rec).
Press the Fill screen button.
Determine what needs to get filled in, eg:
choose Note,
choose Chromatic scale,
choose Random fill type,
indicate its root note,
Confirm with a press of the Fill screen button.
This way, a random melody in a Chromatic scale is created. Use the same trick to populate
steps for the selected are on one or more tracks for the Notes/Instruments/Fx at the same
time with one press of a button.
