It used to be there in RB (and PT prior to that) .. probably still is, but I haven't tried it in many many years.
Why would you want to do it this way? There are much better ways; the QWERTY keyboard gave no velocity, was very simple (couldn't hit more than one key at a time, etc), and was quite cumbersome with latency.
Piano roll or event editor may be a better solution in most scenarios.





I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
