MIDI Editing : Using the Grabber Tools : Separate and Consolidate Tools for MIDI Notes
 
Separate and Consolidate Tools for MIDI Notes
In Notes view in the Edit window and in MIDI Editor windows, both the Pencil and Grabber tools can be used to separate MIDI notes and to consolidate MIDI notes.
The cursor updates to show a “knife” for the Separate tool and a “bandage” for the Consolidate tool.
To separate a MIDI note with the Separation tool:
*With the Grabber or Pencil tool, Control-Shift-click (Mac) or Start-Shift-click (Windows) on the MIDI note at the location where you want the separation.
