A few other files were touched as well as they were referred to by files in the MIDI part, which lead to other connected things being pulled in. As this is only the first pass, there will be more necessary changes coming in the near future. Also, the lowest two levels of structure were mistakenly removed from the build system; these have been added back as they are necessary to keep the structure of the manual sane.

|
The <dfn>List Editor</dfn> is a way to look at the MIDI data of a region, not
|
|
graphically as they are displayed in the Editor, but in a tabular form.
|
|
This way of seeing the MIDI data allows for quicker "debugging" of a MIDI
|
|
region, and for fast <em>non-graphical</em> (i.e. no mouse involved)
|
|
editing. The list has a vertical flow, i.e. the first events (in time) are
|
|
at the top of the window, and the last are at the bottom.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
It is accessed by selecting the <kbd class="menu">Region > MIDI > List
|
|
Editor…</kbd> menu while having one MIDI region selected, or by <kbd
|
|
class="mouse">Right</kbd> clicking the MIDI region and choosing <kbd
|
|
class="menu"><em>Name_Of_The_Region</em> > MIDI > List
|
|
Editor…</kbd>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The window displays the following MIDI data:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<table class="dl">
|
|
<tr><th>Start</th><td>the timestamp of the start of the note</td></tr>
|
|
<tr><th>Channel</th><td>the MIDI channel of the event</td></tr>
|
|
<tr><th>Num</th><td>The <a href="@@midi-notes-ref">MIDI number</a> of the note</td></tr>
|
|
<tr><th>Name</th><td>The MIDI name of the note, made of its English name and octave (e.g. "C4")</td></tr>
|
|
<tr><th>Vel</th><td>the velocity of the note, i.e. its volume, between 0 (silent) and 127 (full)</td></tr>
|
|
<tr><th>Length</th><td>duration of the note, either expressed as a number (in ticks, related to the tempo) or as a text
|
|
(fraction of a beat, also related to the tempo)</td></tr>
|
|
</table>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
At the top of the window is a <kbd class="menu">Sound Selected MIDI
|
|
Notes</kbd> button, which toggles playing a note as it is selected.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Each value can be manually modified, by <kbd class="mouse">left</kbd>
|
|
clicking it. However, the <em>Name</em> field is derived from the
|
|
<em>Number</em> field, and cannot be edited. To change a note, its number
|
|
must be changed, which will be reflected in the <em>Name</em> field.
