I'd like the ability to set the default note length to something other than 1/4 note, 8th note, etc. I know I can shift-click the note and change it's length manually. But that's a lot of shift-clicking....If instead, I shift-click a note and change it's length, that length will become the default. Perhaps using a different key press, for example alt-shift-click, that way it would continue to work in your legacy mode.
Alternately, if the panel had a method to make minor adjustments to the default note length (like eight note - minus 10%). Maybe a slider (similar to the controls in humanize) to let you increase/decrease the selected length.
This serves 2 purposes (for me at least):
1) to create a series of notes that slightly overlap (legato)
2) to create a series of notes that don't run together. (a little silence between)
Thanks
