Would be nice to see this in Cubase 12 guys. A smart pencil tool that remember last notes length value when inserted. Check the video. Thanks

Hi,

It would be nice, if you could describe it by words. Then the text is searchable, video is not.

As far as I understand it the thing is, the Tool remembers the last Note Length and the new Note is inserted with the same Note Length as the previous one. Am I right?

You are right Martin. That is thing I’m trying to say or show. BTW thanks for the suggestions.

Gets a thumbs up from me!

I’m not sure if my comment will be helpful but you could “almost” do this by setting the length of the note in the Length Quantize pop-up menu. Of course, you would have to change it with each value.

Thanks Symmetry for commenting. As you said “almost”, but it’s not the same. It’s so helpful this function and fast when you writing melodies. I wish Steinberg implement this in the key editor one day. :crossed_fingers:

Hi Martin, I’m using Cubase 13 in earlier versions there was a L in the editor toolbar that you could select the note value you wanted to enter with the pencil, I can’t seem to locate how to select the not value in 13, ie a 16th or 1/4 etc any ideas. Cheers

Hi,

Right-click on the toolbar and enable the Length Quantize option. I believe this is the part, you are missing.
