Controller/velocity painting (freehand)
Paint Controllers/Velocities Free is one of the programmable mouse Actions, which can be
assigned to any mouse button and key combination. For more information, see “Flexible Piano Roll
tools” on page 457.
When you use the Paint Controllers/Velocities Free action, Controller events of the current edit
type are painted from the mouse click position to the current mouse position. Controller events are
painted at the snap positions if Snap to Grid is enabled. If Snap to Grid is disabled, Controller events
will be placed anywhere in time. Regardless of the Snap to Grid state, Controller events are only
inserted where there is a change in value.
When painting velocities in the Notes pane, existing velocities are updated as the mouse passes
through Note events. When painting velocities in the Controllers pane, the behavior is the same as
the Paint Notes/Controllers Free action.

Controller/velocity painting (linear)
Paint Controllers/Velocities Linear is one of the programmable mouse Actions, which can be
assigned to any mouse button and key combination. For more information, see “Flexible Piano Roll
tools” on page 457.
When you use the Paint Controllers/Velocities Linear action, Controller events of the current edit
type are painted linearly from the mouse click position to the current mouse position. Controller
events are painted at the snap positions if Snap to Grid is enabled. If Snap to Grid is disabled,
Controller events will be placed anywhere in time. Regardless of the Snap to Grid state, Controller
evetns are only inserted where there is a change in value.
When painting velocities in the Notes pane, velocities are updated as the mouse passes through
Note events. When painting velocities in the Controllers pane, the behavior is the same as the Paint
Notes/Controllers Linear action.
