The MIDI List Editor window
<p>
The <dfn>List Editor</dfn> is a way to look at the MIDI data of a region, not
graphically as they are displayed in the Editor, but in a tabular form.
- This way of seeing the MIDI data allows for a quicker "debugging" of a MIDI region,
- and for a fast <em>non-graphical</em> (i.e. no mouse involved) editing. This
- list has a vertical flow, i.e. the first events (in time) are on the top
- of the window, and the latest are at its bottom.

The window displays the following MIDI data:
</p>
-<dl>
- <dt>Start</dt><dd>the timestamp of the start of the note</dd>
- <dt>Channel</dt><dd>the MIDI channel of the event</dd>
- <dt>Num</dt><dd>The <a href="@@midi-notes-ref">MIDI number</a> of the note</dd>
- <dt>Name</dt><dd>The MIDI name of the note, made of its english name and octave (e.g. "C4")</dd>
- <dt>Vel</dt><dd>the velocity of the note (i.e. its intensity, between 0 and 127)</dd>
- <dt>Length</dt><dd>duration of the note, either expressed as a number (in ticks, related to the tempo) or as a text (fraction of a beat, also related to the tempo)</dd>
