    Ardour's MIDI editing is based on two basic principles:

    -
      -
    1. Editing should be done without having to enter a new window
    2. -
    3. - Editing should be able to carried out completely with the keyboard, - or completely with the mouse, or with any combination of the two. -
    4. -
    -

    - Currently, MIDI editing is primarily restricted to note data. Other - kinds of data (controller events, sysex data) are present and can be - added and deleted, but not actually edited. -

    Fundamentals of MIDI Editing in Ardour 3

    -

    - MIDI, just like audio, exists in regions. MIDI regions - behave like audio regions: they can be moved, trimmed, copied (cloned), - or deleted. Ardour allows either editing MIDI (or audio) regions, or MIDI - region content (the notes), but never both at the same time. The - e key (by default) toggles between region level - and note level editing, as will double-clicking on a MIDI region. -

    -

    - One very important thing to note: editing note information in Ardour - occurs in only a single region. There is no way currently to edit in note - data for multiple regions at the same time, so for example you cannot select - notes in several regions and then delete them all, nor can you copy-and-paste - notes from one region to another. You can, of course, copy and paste the - region(s), just as with audio. -
