Hi,

Is there a way so that when I click a MIDI note in my MIDI clip editor I can hear what note it is? It seems silly to have to guess at where the notes I want are (without thinking theory), and hit play/adjust each time until it's right. Am I missing something?

There is a little headphone icon in the upper left of the midi editor. Click that to toggle whether or not you hear the note when you click it.

is there a command for this? Sorry to hijack.

Nope. And as far as I know, there is also no way to set the headphones (ie MIDI Editor Preview icon) to be ON by default.
