How do you use advanced editing functions?
In the editor there is an advanced drop down menu for modulation, pitchbend, expression and sustain. Is there any documentation of exactly how to use these effects?
Specifically I am trying to make the midi piano sound a little more realistic with some decay of notes after holding them out instead of the harsh stop that occurs when the length of the note ends. If a note lasts for 2 beats do I have to draw a curve directly beneath where that note occurs to have the sound decay gently?
It seems like alot of work to do that for all notes; and you don't even get to see the notes and the advanced curve at the same time.
Maybe someone can point me in the direction of some literature on how to use these advanced effects. Thanks
