<h2>Adding new notes</h2>
<p>
In general, most MIDI editing will probably be done with the mouse in object
mode. This allows to select notes, copy, move or delete them and alter their
properties (see below). But at some point, <em>adding</em> notes to a MIDI
region using the mouse will mean dragging with the mouse. Since this would
normally be a selection operation if the mouse is in object mode, there needs
to be some way to tell Ardour that the user is trying to <dfn>draw</dfn> new
notes within a MIDI region. Ardour provides two ways do this. One is to leave
the mouse in object mode and <kbd class="mouse mod1">Left</kbd>-drag. The
other, useful to enter a lot of notes for a while, is to switch the mouse into
<kbd class="menu">Draw Notes</kbd> mode, which will now interpret any drags
and clicks as requests to add a new note. For obvious reasons, Draw Notes mode
can not be used while using region-level editing.
For light MIDI editing, you can use the Internal Edit Mode.
This mode lets you select notes, copy, move or delete them and alter their
properties (see below). To <em>add</em> notes using the mouse, <kbd class="mouse mod1">Left</kbd>-drag.
For more extensive MIDI editing, you may prefer <kbd class="menu">Draw Mode</kbd>.
You can click or drag to add a new note, without having to hold down Ctrl. However,
Draw Mode doesn't offer region-level editing.
