+ Although recording MIDI is a common way to create new MIDI regions, it is
+ often desirable to do so as part of editing/arranging.
+</p>
+<p>
+ To create a new MIDI region, simply <kbd class="mouse">Left</kbd>-click in
+ a MIDI track. A region will be created that is one bar long. You can
+ <a href="/editing-and-arranging/change-region-lengths/">trim</a> it to any
+ length you want.
+</p>
+<p>
+ Once you have created a region, you will probably want to
+ <a href="/working-with-midi/add-new-notes/">Add some notes to it</a>.
