Editing Notes with the Draw Tool and the Select Tool

You can edit notes in the Piano Roll view and the Inline Piano Roll view with the same methods. The
Draw tool and the Select tool are useful for quick note editing. You can do the same edits with
commands in the Process menu (Length, Slide, Transpose). If you want to edit multiple notes at the
same time, first select them with the Select tool.
MIDI notes display their velocity value as a wide or narrow column. You can drag the column up or
down to edit the note's velocity. Holding the Draw tool over the middle of the note in the upper third of
the note displays a small velocity column on the Draw tool to show that the tool is in the target zone.
