    CTRL ALT SHIFT paints notes in midi editor

    1st Question: If i have it snap to C major scale.

    When i paint notes upwards it seems to only paint C E G notes

    is there a way it paints all of the notes in C major scale?

    2nd question, does it understand in melodic minor snap that when you go down the scale its a bit different notes? when painting

    Thanks

    Paint with Shift-Alt instead of Ctrl-Alt-Shift - if your settings are default.

    Reaper only goes one direction I believe. IMO flatten the sixth and seventh in your head when going down and fix accordingly.

    great!!!
    shift + Alt = all notes in scale
    and shift + alt + ctrl = chords

    It's pleasant to see this.
    A beginner that asks specific questions; you can guess he has tried before asking. A very good reply from my estimated @xorome.

    And to top it all @Staee already knows how to give him the "best answer". These are the little pleasures of life, AudioSex version :yes::wink:
