Hi Tom

Firstly, Welcome to the forum!

When you mention 'specific note values', do you perhaps mean creating your own MIDI drums, or using the Chords for input but creating a rest on certain beats etc?

You can create a Rest for any beat in a Chord by following the Chord with a period character (1 dot)

From the help:
C. indicates a C chord that is a Rest.

C.. indicates a C chord that is a Shot.

C... indicates a C chord that is a Held Chord.

Nominate instruments that are supposed to play during a rest, shot, hold etc like this:

C.bd will put a Rest on all instruments except for Bass and Drums

Check out the help under "Rests, Shots, and Holds"

You can also Rest only certain instruments

BTW: No questions are considered silly on this forum!

Hope this is at least a starter

All the best
