Note Colors

Choose Use Note Color for Channel Info to instruct Metro to display a unique color for each MIDI channel shown in the Graphic Editor window. Viewing by channel color is useful when working directly with Ports with multiple MIDI channels embedded across a single track. You can change any MIDI channel’s color assignment by Option-clicking on the Channel pop-up menu icon (the control that looks like an old TV dial) in the top portion of the Graphic Editor window. Choose the new channel color in the Mac color wheel and click OK.

Choose Use Color for Selection to instruct Metro to display selected notes as one color and unselected notes (regardless of MIDI channel) as a different color. Using color for selection is particularly helpful when working with noncontiguous note selection within the Graphic Editor window.
