Hi people, newbie question here, and my first post.

I've recently switched from using Sony Acid on Windows to a Mac setup, currently using Garageband.

In the Acid piano roll midi editor there was a pencil/brush tool which allowed me to draw notes directly on the piano roll. I can't find an equivalent tool in Garageband, does one exist and if so how do I access it.

I've resorted to tapping out notes using either a USB keyboard or the qwerty keyboard mapper, and then moving them (I'm a very poor keyboard player!), it works but I miss being able to add notes with the mouse pointer.

I've already picked up some good info from these forums, so thanks in advance.

If you hold down the apple key and click with your mouse in the midi editor you can create notes with a pencil tool. Easy !

Obvious really

Thanks.
