Erase tool
Click an event or selection of events with the Erase tool to erase it.
If you hold down the mouse button in an empty area and drag, a selection box is created. Any events enclosed within the selec-
tion are deleted when the mouse button is released.
You can also use the DELETE key while in other Edit modes in order to delete the current selection.
Mute tool
Clicking on a selection of events with the Mute tool causes it to be muted – it becomes silent but is not deleted.
If an event or selection is already muted, clicking it again unmutes it.
You can create a rectangular selection box in the same way as the select tool, but when you release the mouse button, the notes
enclosed by the box are muted (and also selected).
If the selection contains both muted and unmuted notes, their state becomes inverted.
Velocity tool
To use the Velocity tool, click on an event or selection of events, hold the mouse button down and drag vertically. Upward move-
ment increases the velocity of the events, while downward movement decreases it.
If you use the Velocity tool on a multiple selection of events, their velocities are adjusted by the same amount. However if you try
and adjust velocities beyond their limits, their values become saturated at the minimum or maximum amount.
You can also adjust the velocities of all events, or a selection of events, using the Velocity lane, described in the previous section.
Undo button
The Undo button, while it exists on the Grooves page toolbar. does not operate like the rest of the toolbar buttons, and is
not restricted to Editor functions – any action performed in the Groove page can be undone.
See section 4:4 for details of the Undo function.
