THE VIRTUAL KEYBOARD
The Virtual Keyboard, located at the bottom of the GVI interface serves
many functions. You can ‘play’ the keyboard with a mouse to audition
sounds rapidly, allowing you to test and edit sounds even if a hardware
keyboard isn’t connected. The Virtual Keyboard is also used to illustrate the
playable range of each instrument and any keyswitched articulations that
may be present in the instrument. With MIDI Select enabled in the QuickEdit
view, the Virtual Keyboard also enables you to select individual notes to be
edited.

Virtual Keyboard region. Following is a list of the colors used and their
corresponding function:
