The Velocity command opens the Velocity dialog where you can set the default velocity value for
each note entered using the Pattern Brush. If the Use Pattern Velocities command is checked, this
value is not used. For more information about the Use Pattern Velocities command, see Use Pattern
Velocities.
Use Pattern Velocities
When the Use Pattern Velocities command is checked, the Pattern Brush creates notes using the
actual velocity values saved in the current pattern file. For more information about pattern files and
the Pattern Brush, see The Pattern Brush Tool.
Use Pattern Polyphony
When the Use Pattern Polyphony command is checked, the Pattern Brush creates notes using the
actual pitch values saved in the current pattern file, regardless of where the mouse is in the Drum
Grid pane. For more information about pattern files and the Pattern Brush, see The Pattern Brush
Tool.
Use Note Duration
When the Use Note Duration command is checked, the Pattern Brush uses the current note duration
setting in the Piano Roll view toolbar as the interval between notes. For more information about
pattern files and the Pattern Brush, see The Pattern Brush Tool.
Auto Erase
When the Auto Erase command is checked, the Draw tool can create new notes by clicking where
there are no existing notes and can delete current notes by clicking on them.

An option in the Show/Hide Grid button, the Quarter Note option creates grid lines in the Drum Grid
pane at quarter note intervals.
