Controllers pane
The Controllers pane in the Step Sequencer is similar to the Controllers pane in the Piano Roll view
and allows you to include Controller, Pitch Wheel, Channel Aftertouch, RPN and NRPN events in
your sequences. You can also edit velocity values in the Controllers pane.
To display the Controllers pane, click a row’s Select button. Any edits performed in the Controllers
pane apply to all selected rows.
For more information about working with controller events, see “Working with Controller events” on
page 1717 and “Adding and editing controllers in the Piano Roll” on page 672.
