You can use almost any controller to RECORD MIDI and thus get the notes in realtime, but attempts to use such to enter notes when the Transport is not rolling would be problematic. For example, how would the program know the duration of each note?

However, recording in realtime using MIDI can be fast and is very easy to do as compared to recording audio. I do it all the time with both Keyboard and Guitar Controllers.

And, correcting any mistakes made does not necessarily mean having to resort to Punch Ins, re-recording the whole thing again, etc. -- that's when tools like the PianoRoll or the Notation Edit window are fantastic. Clean up that badly played bar in seconds.
