ACID project.
You can record in real time during project playback by using step recording or MIDI merge recording to build MIDI tracks.
Track-level MIDI input filters—available on the Input Filters tab in the Track Properties window—allow you to control exactly which
MIDI messages you want to record (or exclude) or even split a MIDI keyboard into zones to record into two different tracks at once.
Tip:
If you use the keyboard/drum list between the track header and timeline to input MIDI notes, note that the buttons are velocity
sensitive: clicking toward the right side of a button plays the note with a higher velocity setting than clicking toward the left side. The
keyboard/drum list is visible in inline MIDI editing mode.

Important:
Attempting to record MIDI controller data over an existing event will overwrite existing note data. If you want to record
