If the tracks as seen in the mixer are green, then the piano-roll data is for information only, unless you switch a section to "Playable RealTracks". Try this video if you want to use that 2022 onwards: Using Playable RealTracks). It's value for composing is doubtful, IMHO ... probably better to use MIDI tracks.

If the track is yellow, then it's definitely MIDI and editing should work (unless the track is frozen). I think that's also true of MIDI Super Tracks.

Gordon is right. My previous tests were with MIDI and MIDI Super Tracks: yes Gordon editing works in both cases. I just tried a test with RTs and the MIDI editing does not work.

OP, if you want to modify RT notes you must drag and drop the RT as MIDI into a DAW, if you have a Window machine you have one in RealBand. In the DAW you can make your changes and assign a MIDI sound source to your track; I do that all of the time. Note it may not sound like the original RT but with a good sound source and a little MIDI knowledge you can come very close.
