[RWP] MIDI editing

[Scott Chesworth]

Hi folks,

I'm doing some MIDI editing here, comping together the best stuff from
multiple drum takes. The MIDI data is being piped through EZDrummer.
I'm encountering two problems that hopefully someone can help me
solve:

1. Quite often when I split an item, it'll cause a retrigger of MIDI
notes, so I'll often end up with extra kicks, snares or tom hits
around the split. Sometimes I can go in and delete them, but at other
splits I can still hear some low velocity weirdness happening during
playback even though there's nothing obviously wrong in the events
list. I've checked the duration of preceding hits too, to make sure
there's no overlap.

2. Using CTRL+Alt+E after selecting an item does give me the in-built
events list, and CTRL+F2 on an event does allow me to edit it, but I'm
hoping to find a way of having better control of where I get placed in
that events list. Sometimes I get dropped at the current cursor
position (the ideal result), but other times I'll be landed at the
start of the item, and other times I'll be right at the start of the
song with thousands of hits to find my way through to get back to the
event I'm trying to edit.

Any idea on how I can refine either of these workflows? So far, it's
been a pretty slow unproductive experience. Thanks in advance for any
help.
