I've looked everywhere (even read the online manual ). I found a few in the File Menu, but hopefully there are some specifically for the Edit Menu.

For example: Quantize, Slide, Change Velocities, Velocity Dynamics.

Several years ago (probably more like six or seven) they were posted, but I lost the list.

PS - if they don't exist, I wish they did.

The list is in chapter 14 of the manual -> Keystroke Commands - Hot Keys. Quantize and velocity stuff ain't accessible via hot keys, though.

Thanks Martin.

Would be nice (for me) to have this commands with keystrokes though.
