Listen to notes

Play back each note as you drag it inside the piano roll.

Piano Roll Keys

These are the keys corresponding to each key found on a piano.

钢琴卷帘键

Clicking on each key allows you to listen to it, much like pressing a key on a real piano.

A label for each key is shown on the left side of the black/white keys, in addition to any highlighting (if selected). See Chord/Scale Highlighting for more information.

The vertical zoom level can be changed by holding down Ctrl and Shift and scrolling.

MIDI Arranger

The MIDI arranger refers to the arranger section of the piano roll.

MIDI arranger with notes

The MIDI arranger contains MIDI notes drawn as rectangles from their start position to their end position. Zrythm will send a MIDI note on signal when the start position of a note is reached, and a note off signal when the end position of a note is reached.

速度编辑

There is another arranger at the bottom of the MIDI arranger for editing the velocity of each note.

Velocity refers to the force with which a note is played. Each instrument handles various velocities for the same note differently, but generally a higher velocity will result in a louder or stronger note. Velocities are useful for adding expression to melodies.

The velocity of each note is drawn as a bar, where higher means a larger value. Clicking and dragging the tip of each velocity bar allows you to change it.

小訣竅

You can also edit multiple velocities at once by selecting multiple MIDI notes before editing a velocity bar.

The 斜率工具 can also be used in the velocity editor to ramp velocities.
