I don't know what the other DAW/sequencer folks are doing these days -- but how about a "property view" like a lot of design and developing software's have?
IOW, when you put the focus on a given note (perhaps with the ability to 'tab' from one note to another for no-mouse work in bigger jobs) the various values open in a fixed work area to the bottom or side (or floating might be nice... a lot of programs have a floating/docking property window) where you can quickly get at them.
I know some folks will say,
What does it take to right click on a note? Yeah, sure. But what if you have to edit 20 or 30, one after another (and it's not something you can do with a global edit or a CAL prg).
I'm sure there are a lot of better ideas floating around, too. I just know that note editing is always something that's seemed awkward in CW/Sonar.
But -- hey -- I love it and I've used it since 1996. (Why do we all have to make these loyalty oath things, now? I don't get that feeling from CW -- but the roving packs of 'anti-hater' vigilantes gets a bit old when you're just trying to get answers or make suggestions.)
