| Lesson 4 - Step Input Another approach to creating MIDI performances is the Step Input mode. Using a MIDI keyboard, users can input a musical phrase, one note at a time, based on musical note durations. This function works either when Pro Tools is playing or paused, regardless of tempo. details |
