It is possible to evenly split (tuple) and join notes in both the Draw

<h2>Splitting notes</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
To split a note or a group of notes into tuplets, first select the notes.

|
Press <kbd class="button">S</kbd> to split selected notes into two tuplets.
|
|
In the example below, each note with a duration of two whole notes will be
|
|
split into two notes, each with a duration of one whole note. For each
|
|
newly created note Ardour will display its velocity inherited from the
|
|
original notes.

|
<p>
|
|
Repeatedly pressing <kbd class="button">S</kbd> will increment the amount
|
|
of tuplets. Thus, the next key press will divide the original note into
|
|
3 notes 2 and 2/3 beats long each, then 4 notes 2 beats long each etc.
|
|
A temporary message will be displayed to tell how many subdivisions have
|
|
been created.

|
|
To stop incrementing the amount of subdivisions, deselect notes by
|
|
clicking elsewhere in the MIDI region or by pressing
|
|
<kbd class="button">Esc</kbd>.
|
|
</p>

<h2>Joining notes</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
To join several notes into one, select the notes, then press
|
|
<kbd class="button">J</kbd>:

|

<p>
|
|
If non-adjacent notes are selected, and there is a blank space between
|
|
them, the note will extend from the beginning of the earliest note to
|
|
the end of the latest note and fill the blank spaces with itself:

If non-adjacent notes are selected, and there is at least one note between
|
|
them, newly created note will overlay the existing note:
