Step Edit The Step Edit function gives you a convenient way to modify the individual notes and control changes that make up a song you've recorded. This function not only lets you change notes, it also allows you to adjust the timing, length, and velocity with which the notes are played. You can also modify other events, add or delete events, or even record entire songs one note at a time.
