Editing MIDI Notes and Velocities
A MIDI clip in Live contains notes and controller data for playing a MIDI instrument. This
instrument can be a virtual instrument in a MIDI track's device chain or an exter nal synth
fed via the track's output routing. The MIDI clip provides the device with a musical score
to play, specifying note pitch, length, position and dynamics (referred to as velocity in the
MIDI lexicon). MIDI is composed and edited in Live's MIDI Editor.
10.1 Creating an Empty MIDI Clip
MIDI clips are created
by means of recording;
or by double-clicking an empty Session slot in a MIDI track;
or by selecting an empty Session slot in a MIDI track and choosing the Create menu's
Insert MIDI Clip command;
or, in the Arrangement View, by selecting a timespan in a MIDI track and choosing the
Create menu's Insert MIDI Clip command.
