This one routes notes directly to the pattern editor, movement keys (arrow keys and tab/shift tab) supported.

hey! awesome! thanks, will try it out!

ey, nice one!

Could you make it so the window doesn’t disappear after pressing enter?

Perhaps make it so that the key input is directed immediately to the pattern editor instead of to a textfield? (put in a useless smiley image just to have a pretty sight)
Updated the first post to add 0.6
This one also allows you to use the arrowkeys and tab/shifttab to browse through the tracks, lines, notecolumns to quickly change.

cool! This is a pretty nifty alternative way to key in your notes. Thanks for the update!

thanks for the update!

had a look at the code for this tool and it seems that a lot can be achieved with relatively little code. can’t say that get the lua syntax though. guess i have to read up on it.

The purpose of 2,5K is that it should lure people in browsing and figure out how many of this less code could do all that kind of stuff.
Even if you are no programming wizard, some of the stuff can be done very easily. But reading the API to find what you need consumes the most time.

Version 0.6

  1. Move cursor to effect column
  2. Focus Note Editor, press E

*** main.lua:47: attempt to index field ‘?’ (a nil value)
*** stack traceback:
*** main.lua:47: in function main.lua:41

Otherwise, neat tool!
