CHAPTER 10. EDITING MIDI NOTES AND VELOCITIES 143
You can also use the
Ctrl
(PC) /
Alt
(Mac) modier to click and drag copies of notes
to a new location. If you click and drag to move notes but then decide that you would like
to copy them instead, you can press the
Ctrl
(PC) /
Alt
(Mac) modier even after
starting the drag.
When editing or drawing, you may sometimes place a new note on top of one that already
exists. If the new note overlaps with the beginning of the original note, the original note
will vanish. If the new note overlaps with the tail of the original, the original note's length
will change so that it lasts just until the new note's beginning.
10.4.5 Changing Note Length
Clicking and dragging on a note's left or right edges changes its length. Note length can
only be changed when Draw Mode is inactive, and will be quantized unless the
Alt
(PC)
/ (Mac) modier is held down while dragging.
Changing Note Length.
Tip: To set a group of notes to the same length, select them all, grab the end of the longest
one, drag them all down to zero length and then extend them.
10.4.6 The ...Time Commands in the MIDI Editor
The standard clipboard commands like Cut, Copy and Paste only affect the currently selected
notes (or the notes within a time selection). But, as in Arrangement editing, there are ...
Time commands that act upon the entire MIDI clip by inserting and deleting time.
Note that these operations do not change the clip start/end position or the loop brace
settings.
