The initial length of newly-entered notes is defined by the Note Value setting in the Grid options. (See "Determine
musical timing with the MIDI grid" on page 217.)

Copy and paste notes
1 Select the notes in the grid. Then choose Edit > Copy.
Click the destination track at the desired start point, automatically moving the current-time indicator. Then

choose Edit > Paste.
Pasted notes initially reflect original pitch values, but you can move pasted notes if needed.
To quickly copy selected notes to another location in the same track, Ctrl-drag them.
Automatically adjust timing, velocity, and transposition
1 In the grid, select the desired data.
From the Edit menu, choose any of the following:
2
Slighty offsets timing relative to the grid, providing a human feel to notes you've manually entered.
Humanize
Aligns note timing with the grid, a useful option for recorded performances that are rhythmically out of sync.
Quantize
Assigns arbitrary velocity values to each selected note, often producing a more human feel,
Randomize Velocity
particularly for drum tracks.
Adjusts pitch up or down in semitones (half-steps) and full octaves that you specify in a separate window.

Edit velocity and controller data
MIDI velocity data determines how hard each note is struck; MIDI controller data adjusts common synthesizer
parameters such as modulation, filter resonance, and portamento. To create controller data, you adjust assigned
knobs and sliders on a MIDI hardware controller while recording performances. You can then edit the recorded
values in the Sequencer, fine-tuning them to achieve precise musical results.
Both velocity and controller data have value scales ranging from zero to 127. At a velocity of zero, for example, a note
is unplayed and inaudible. At the maximum velocity of 127, however, a note is played as loudly as possible.
