Hi Jasmine,
To edit any midi event in Reaper:
1. Select the track with up down arrows.
2. Select the item with the midi to be edited with: ctrl+shift+right arrow.
3. Press ctrl+alt+E to bring up the built in midi editor; then press 
enter on it.
4. Press alt+V; which immediately takes you to a subMenu of the standard 
view menu.
Arrow up to Mode Event List; and press enter.
You only need to select mode event list once per sessionl then it stays 
selected.
5. You now get a list of all midi events per note on the item you selected.
Arrow up or down through a numbered list of notes and their events.
6. When you find the note and event you want to edit, press enter, and 
you get a list of that note's events at your tab key.
If I'm in NVDA, I find that pressing Enter on a particular note doesn't 
work, so I move to focus with NVDA+numPad minus; then click with 
NVDA+numPad enter.

This is much easier to do than to describe; and you get the midi events 
very nicely labeled, and can easily tab to an event and find the edit 
boxes for editing at your arrow keys.

For quantizing, here's a method someone posted earlier:
select the item that I have to quantize and press ctrl+alt+e to open it 
in the midi editor, then I press alt+1 to toggle the Piano Rol view and 
then, with the Jaws cursor or with insert+7 om the numpad, 7 and 9 with 
NVDA I put the cursor on the words "grid: 1/8,", or "1/4" ecc (depends 
on the last quantization setting that I have used). I do a left click 
here, and the focus now will be on a combo box. I select my preferred 
quantization setting with the arrow keys, then I press "q" to open the 
quantize dialog.
Now set the first combo box to "use grid", tab and ensure that the 
bypass checkbox is unselected, tab and select the type of quantization 
(position, position + note end, length ecc), tab again and select also 
"quantize all events", and then "ok".
In this way you quantize all events on a single track.
To quantize only a part of a track's items; , split the track.
