In the software, the Pencil Tool and Select Box Tool will be greyed out as they are disabled in List View.
You can enter notes in List View only by playing the pads, but List View offers a different way to edit
your notes than in Grid View.
As in Grid View, you can do the following in List View:
•
Click a note event to hear its corresponding pad.
•
Delete a event if it is selected by pressing Delete or Backspace on your computer keyboard.
•
To shorten or extend a note event (in ticks), click and drag its Length value left or right.
•
Duplicate events by selecting them in the list and then pressing Ctrl+D (Windows) or +D (Mac OS
X). The selected events will be automatically copied and pasted to the same position (one note
event on top of another). Alternatively, click the page icon in the lower-right corner of the List View
to duplicate an event to copy and paste it immediately after it.
• Use the copy-and-paste function to copy an event (Ctrl+C [Windows] or +C [Mac OS X]) and
paste it automatically where the audio pointer is (Ctrl+V [Windows] or +V [Mac OS X]).
Hardware: (Use the Cursor Buttons in List View to select the desired note event.)
•
To hear a note event's corresponding pad, press F6 (Play).
•
To delete a selected event, press F2 (Edit) so it is highlighted, and then press F3 (Delete).
•
To shorten or extend a selected note event (in ticks), select the Length field and use the Data Dial
or -/+ buttons to adjust its length.
•
To copy and paste a selected event, press F2 (Edit) so it is highlighted, and then press F4 (Copy).
Use the Cursor Buttons to each Copy To (time) field, and use the Data Dial or -/+ buttons to set
the value. Press F4 (Do It) to confirm or F3 (Close) to cancel the operation.
Edit the velocity of a note event by clicking and dragging its Velocity value left or right.
Hardware: To adjust a selected note event's velocity, select the Vel field and use the Data
Dial or -/+ buttons to adjust its velocity.
Edit options in List View in the MPC hardware display.
