How to put chords into midi editor?
Hi,
Is possible to put define chords into midi (piano roll) when I edit piano?
At the moment I need to draw chords. Would be nice to have option for create chords in some area in midi editor.

Thanks for this! Fast and easy. The plugin chordz also makes life easier for this kind of stuff.

Nothing wrong, you'll just need a reascale file for that to work. Zappadave has a comprehensive collection of them here:

Please explain the way you would draw chords and then we can answer this question of you.
However, i am afraid beforehand it will not be possible.

No, midi editor also has an action.
In midi editor press alt-4 switching to notation editor, then following action:
Notation: Identify chords on editor grid

There is Script: X-Raym_Create text items on first selected track from selected takes name.lua ,it would be cool if we had a variant, instead of using 'selected takes name' it could use instead 'selected takes notation text event name'.
Then you could see those chord names directly on arrange as new text items.
