Show velocity on selected notes (optional)
SONAR has an option to show velocities for selected Note events. This option makes it easier to see
and edit velocities when many Note events are present. It also makes it easier to change the velocity
for individual Note events that are stacked (such as chords).
If there is no selection, velocities are shown for all Note events.
