I thought bitflipper's comment about the PRV was awesome.  I have used Sonar/Cakewalk since it ran on a coal-burning PC and I did not know this.

in piano roll view, lasso select (rightclick-dragging), then doubleclick on 1 note.
properties  then opens, make changes there will apply all notes selected.
 
also you can select by clicking 1 midi note, then shift-click other note to create continuous selection.
double click 1 note, same as above.
can also ctrl-click notes to make not-continious selection.
so same as in windows really.
also you can click a note on the 'piano' keys on left, then you select all those paticular notes at once....
 
good luck

That's cool. As you said, that would be very helpful for non-contiguous notes.

Yes, the Event Inspector Module in the Control Bar is great for this.
 
However, when it comes to Velocity values that are different... you have to set them to "0" first and then re-set them to the desired level.

That's not strictly true Steve.
 
There is one little quirk when changing velocities using the Event Inspector module in that, if you have a bunch of notes selected and you want want to change them all to, say, 100.
If the FIRST selected note is already at 100, none of the others will change. Any other velocity value for the first note and they will ALL change.
This has caught me out numerous times.
 
Your setting them to "0" will work, but it's not necessary unless your first note's velocity is also the target velocity.
 
Please, try it, and confirm I'm not talking out of my bottom (or anywhere else)

Tried... and True!
 
As you describe, my experience is typically wanting to change everything to 100 while the 1st note is already 100.
Which is why I frequently have to -0- everything first.
 
One more little quirk demystified. Thanks for catching that BJ.
