<p>
Although recording MIDI is a common way to create new MIDI regions, it is
often desirable to do so as part of editing/arranging.
</p>
<p>
Create a new MIDI region is as simple as entering draw mode (press
"d" or click on the pencil tool) and then <kbd
class="mouse">Left</kbd>-clicking in a MIDI track. A region will be created
that is one bar long. Alternatively, use the left button to
drag-create a new region of the desired length.
</p>
<p>
Once the region exists, to trim it to a different length, switch
back to grabber/object/select mode (press "g" or click on the
grabber tool). It can then
be <a href="@@trimming-regions">trimmed</a> to any length desired.
</p>
<p>
Once a region has been created, <a href="@@add-new-notes">some notes</a>
should be added to it.
