tdehan Posted Saturday at 05:02 PM Share Posted Saturday at 05:02 PM (edited) Why in Piano Roll View sometimes it shows number and other times shows a keyboard. Is there a way to make it show the keyboard when it is showing numbers? Edited 9 hours ago by tdehan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutrageProductions Posted Saturday at 06:31 PM Share Posted Saturday at 06:31 PM If the track you are viewing has been frozen, it will just show the latter. Unfreeze it and the keyboard comes back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a way to make it show the keyboard when it is showing numbers? Right click on the very left in Piano Roll View, on either the piano keys, or the numbers. This opens the Note Names Dialog box.

tdehan Posted 9 hours ago Author Share Posted 9 hours ago @57gregy, I already have tried that, it does not make the keyboard appear, it just gives names. I want to see the keyboard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjoens Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago This normally happens when a MIDI track's output is set to a frozen synth or is set specifically to display 0.. 127, but this can be overridden. "Right click on the very left in Piano Roll View" was right on but try Use these Note Names Instead > Diatonic to display keys. Side Note: Editing notes on a frozen MIDI/Synth track won't affect the synth until it's unfrozen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdehan Posted 9 hours ago Author Share Posted 9 hours ago Ok, I got it to work. By clicking USE THESE NOTE NAMES INSTEAD and selecting DIATONIC, then click on USE THE ASSIGNED INSTRUMENTS SETTINGS and then back again to USE THESE NOTE NAMES INSTEAD and selecting DIATONIC it changes to the keyboard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, I recognized that mistake when I reread this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
