There are several options to move and transpose note events.

  • To move note events in the editor, select the Object Selection tool, and drag the notes to a new position.

    All selected note events are moved, maintaining their relative positions. Snap is taken into account.

  • To allow only horizontal or only vertical movement, hold down Ctrl/Cmd while dragging.

  • To move note events via the buttons in the Nudge section on the toolbar, select the note events, and click a button.

  • To move note events to the project cursor position, select the note events, and select Edit > Move > Event Starts to Cursor.

  • To move a note event via the info line, select a note event, and edit the Position or Pitch on the info line.

  • To transpose note events, select the note events and use the Up Arrow/Down Arrow keys.

  • To transpose note events via the Transpose Setup dialog, select the note events, and select MIDI > Transpose Setup.

  • To transpose note events in steps of one octave, press Shift, and use the Up Arrow/Down Arrow keys.

Note
  • When you move selected note events to a different position, any controllers selected for these note events move accordingly.

  • You can also adjust the position of note events by quantizing.
