Searching for Events

The events in a project have many different parameters. For example, all MIDI notes have a channel,
starting time, pitch, velocity, and duration. Controllers have a controller number and value. SONAR
makes it simple to find, select, and modify events that have certain values for specific attributes.
Here are some of the things you can do and the commands that you would use to do them:

attributes, and then search again to find the next such event
