Editing MIDI Notes and
Velocities
A MIDI clip in Live contains notes and controller data for playing a MIDI instrument. This instru-
ment can be a virtual instrument in a MIDI track’s device chain (page 217) or an external synth
fed via the track’s output routing (page 171). The MIDI clip (page 22) provides the device
with a musical score to play, specifying note pitch, length, position and dynamics (referred to as
velocity in the MIDI lexicon). MIDI is composed and edited in Live’s MIDI Editor.
