lighted part is overwritten. As long as the input field is open, all
the keys may be used for inputting data only, and may not be
used for key commands.
… by arithmetic
At any time, you can enter numbers by typing in an arithmetical
operation, e.g. “+2” or “-5”, which then simply changes the
current value by that amount.
… as ASCII-symbols
You can also input numbers as ASCII symbols: just put a ` or " in
front of it, and the ASCII code will be input as a number. For
example:
"! gives 33
"a gives 97
This function is particularly useful for entering text in SysEx
strings.
Text Input
You input text names in the same way as numbers, but you only
have to click the name fields once to allow input.
Numbered Names
As you might expect, you can give any number of selected
objects the same name. If the name ends in a number, the
number will automatically be incremented by 1 for each object.
This allows you to name all the sequences on one track quickly.
Disabling automatic numbering
To turn off the automatic numbering, place a space after the
number at the end of the name. All the selected objects will
then end in the same number.
