to add events directly from the Event Editor. You do this by

simply clicking on the desired button with the pen tool.

You may select events by rubberbanding them within the

Status column. (the column under the word Status at the

top portion of the window.) Be careful not to grab the tim-

ing positions or the data lines, as you may change their val-

ues without wanting to.

Note-Off Events, i. e., commands to end notes, are not dis-

played separately. Instead the length of the notes is shown

on the information line for Note-On Commands.

Application Example: Deleting unwanted Controller

data

Let’s assume that an otherwise perfect keyboard perfor-

mance is flawed because of too much modulation wheel

data. The Event Editor makes it very easy to delete only this

unwanted data. You could then re-record just the modula-

tion wheel performance and merge it back into the se-

quence containing the note data. Here is how you might

proceed with such a task. Open the Event Editor and select

a modulation wheel command (controller 1). Select Edit >

Select > Select Similar Objects.

All modulation wheel commands are now selected.

Delete them by pressing Backspace. Close the Event Edi-

tor. In the Arrange window, select Functions > Track >

Create MIDI Track to create a new, identical track on

which you will re-record the modulation wheel commands

only. Using the Merge Tool you can then merge these

commands anytime with the currently edited note se-

quence.

You should also take note that the same value can be

changed simultaneously for all selected events in the

Event Editor. For example, once all the modulation wheel

events were selected above, you could have reduced the

amount of modulation wheel effect for one of the events

and the values for all the other events would have changed

simultaneously by the same amount. You could also use a

similar procedure to alter the time position of any selec-

tion of events.
