MIDI Editor Controls

From CockosWiki

Channel Box

The Channels filter controls which MIDI Channels (or all) are displayed in the MIDI Editor. If set to a particular channel, then new MIDI events are added to that channel (otherwise new MIDI events will be added on channel 1).

Grid/Snaps/Beats "oh my"

The Grid check box enables or disables the Grid that is displayed in the MIDI Editor.

The Snap check box enables or disables the "Snap to Grid" function within the MIDI Editor.

The Grid Selection combo box allows you to select the Grid Size for the MIDI Editor. Note that the units is "beats" as opposed to "quarter notes", and that you can enter any beat fraction in the box (in addition to the fractions listed).

The Move CC with events check box enables or disables the synchronization of CC events to note events. When this check box is not selected, CC events (other than Velocity) can be moved independently of note events.

The CC control lane menu selects which midi CC (continuous controller) to be controlled by the bottom lane. You can choose from all standard midi cc's.

The MIDI Editor Transport controls replicate the functions of the Main Transport. They are directly tied into the main transport controls.

The MIDI Editor Status Window displays the note name and/or value (including CC), and the current Timeline position under the cursor.

The End marker defines the end of a particular midi sequence/loop. You can see in the below picture what happens when you move the end marker -- the end of the loop changes:
