Abstract

A method including receiving a first set of performance data corresponding to a first plurality of MIDI-based notes in a first rhythmic order. The first plurality of MIDI-based notes may form a first arpeggio, with each of the first plurality of notes having a corresponding first performance data. The method further includes receiving input data indicating a change to the first performance data corresponding to a note in the first plurality of notes, changing the first performance data for the corresponding note using the input data, receiving a second set of performance data corresponding to a second plurality of MIDI-based notes, and applying the changed first performance data to the second performance data. Applying the first changed performance data includes editing the second set of performance data in real-time by replacing the second performance data with the changed first performance data.
