Adding note events 
You can add note events using the Draw tool ( 
) or the Paint tool ( 
) in the same way you do in the main ACID window. 
Tip: 
As you drag to create new events, the event edge snaps to the divisions on the beat ruler. To snap to smaller divisions, click the 
Zoom In Time button (  ) at the bottom of the window to zoom in more tightly. Or, to turn off snapping altogether, click the Enable
Snapping button (
) to toggle it off. 
Drawing note events 
The Draw tool limits you to drawing one pitch at a time. In other words, you cannot drag up and down with the Draw tool to draw note 
events across several pitches at once. 
1. 
Click the Draw Tool button ( 
). The Draw tool is selected. 
2. 
Drag in the row for the pitch you wish to create. A new note event appears as you drag. 
Painting note events 
Unlike the Draw tool, the Paint tool allows you to create note events across multiple pitches with a single drag of the mouse. The Paint 
tool also allows you to select the note length you want to paint. 
1. 
Click the arrow adjacent to the Paint Tool button ( 
) and choose a note length to paint from the menu. 
2. 
Click the Paint Tool button ( 
). The Paint tool is selected. 
3. 
Drag to create new note events. The new events appear as you drag. 
Editing note events 
You can change the length or pitch of a note event using the Draw tool. You can also cut, copy, and paste events in the same way you 
do in the main ACID window. 
Changing pitch 
With the Draw tool ( 
) selected, drag a note event to a new row. 
Changing length 
With the Draw tool ( 
) selected, drag the edge of a note event to a new location. 
Tip: 
As you drag the edge of a note event, the event edge snaps to the divisions on the beat ruler. To snap to smaller divisions, click the 
Zoom In Time button (  ) at the bottom of the window to zoom in more tightly. Or, to turn off snapping altogether, click the Enable
Snapping button (
) to toggle it off. 
Specifying a velocity value for notes 
To enter a specific velocity value, right-click a note event in the piano roll, choose Velocity from the shortcut menu, and choose the 
appropriate command from the submenu.
