lines unless the grid is not shown, or the
Alt
(PC) / (Mac) modier is held while
dragging.
If one marker is dragged beyond the boundary of the other, then the order of the stretched
notes will be reected in relation to their initial sequence; this is sometimes referred to as
retrograde behavior.
Any changes occurring to the notes included in the Note Stretch before the mouse button
is released will cancel the stretch operation. This can occur, for example, if the MIDI clip is
simultaneously being overdubbed with new notes.
10.4.7 Editing Velocities
To change velocity for a MIDI note, click and drag on the associated marker in the Velocity
Editor. (To help you locate the velocity marker belonging to a MIDI note that may be stacked
vertically with others, Live highlights the velocity marker for whichever note your mouse is
hovering over.) Velocity changes will be shown numerically in a small display in the time
ruler.
Changing Note Velocity.
As in the Note Editor, you can select multiple velocity markers to change by clicking with
the modier held down.
Tip: To set a group of notes so that they all have the same velocity, select their markers in
the Velocity Editor, drag them up to maximum velocity and then decrease velocity to the
desired value.
As we saw earlier, Draw Mode allows drawing identical velocities for all notes within a grid
tile. Velocity drawing can be limited to only those notes that are currently selected if the
