Hi Gary,

I usually use Piano Roll mode to delete a range of notes.

1. Make sure "Melody" is selected (#1 on image)

2. Set the MIDI channels to "All" (#2)

3. Hold your left mouse button down and drag around the notes you want to delete

4. Press the delete key

Quote:
In the Editable Notation mode you can enter, move, and edit notes and rests using standard mouse techniques– point and click, drag and drop, and right-click to open the Note Edit dialog.

The above is correct. It's just that Editable Notation mode does not allow multiple notes to be selected and manipulated. (It doesn't behave exactly the same as word processor software.)

If you want to delete a note in Editable Notation mode, hold the DEL key down and click on individual note-heads one at a time.

Another way to delete a range of notes is

1. Select "Edit >> Erase from... to..."

2. Enter the first bar number of the range of bars and then enter how many bars to delete

3. Make sure that only the Melody is checked.

Hope this helps,
Noel
