16 Editing MIDI Events in the
Piano Roll Editor
The Piano Roll Editor shows the note events of a MIDI region
as horizontal rectangles. This resembles the holes cut in paper
pianola rolls.
The Piano Roll Editor can display the MIDI note events of one MIDI region, or all MIDI
regions in a folder or project, if desired (see “Displaying and Editing Multiple MIDI
Regions” on page 417). You will generally work on one region at a time in the Piano Roll
Editor, however.

MIDI note events are represented by horizontal rectangles, aligned on a grid of
horizontal and vertical lines.
 The horizontal placement of note events indicates their temporal (bar, beat, and sub-
beat) positioning within the region, and project.
