Deleting notes in the event display

You can delete notes in the event display in Play mode. This also removes notes from any relevant score and part layouts.

Procedure

  1. Expand the instrument tracks whose notes you want to delete.
    Tip

    When deleting notes from unpitched percussion instruments, expanding just the player track is sufficient.

  2. Press E to select Erase.
  3. Delete notes in any of the following ways:
    • Click individual notes.

    • Make a marquee selection to delete multiple notes at once.

      Note

      You can only make marquee selections on a single instrument, including percussion instruments in percussion kits.

Result

The notes you click or include in a marquee selection are deleted.

Tip

You can also delete notes by selecting Object Selection in the Play toolbox, then selecting the notes you want to delete in the event display and pressing Backspace or Delete.
