<h2>Selecting/Navigating note-by-note</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Tab selects the next note. <kbd class="mod1">Tab</kbd> selects the previous
|
|
note. <kbd class="mod3">Tab</kbd> or <kbd class="mod13">Tab</kbd> adds
|
|
the next/previous note to the selection.
|
|
</p>

<h2>Selecting notes with the mouse</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
While in mouse object mode, you can click on a note to select it. Once you
|
|
have selected one note, <kbd class="mouse mod3">Left</kbd>-click on another
|
|
to select all notes between them. To add or remove a note to/from the
|
|
selection, click <kbd class="mouse mod1">Left</kbd>. You can also click and
|
|
drag outside of a note to <dfn>rubberband select</dfn> a series of notes.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Three different selection operations are possible if you switch to mouse
|
|
range mode:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Vertical drags within the MIDI region will select all notes within the
|
|
spanned note range.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Clicks on the piano header of the track (if visible — the track must
|
|
be tall enough to display it) will select all occurences of that note.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Drags on the piano header of the track will select all notes within the
|
|
spanned note range.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>

<h2>Listening to Selected Notes</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If <kbd class="menu">Edit > Preferences > MIDI > Sound MIDI notes
|
|
as they are selected</kbd> is enabled, Ardour will send a pair of
|
|
NoteOn/NoteOff messages through the track, which will typically allow you to
|
|
hear each note as it is selected.
