All notes can be created by mouse clicks at the Virutal MIDI Keyboard's keys or by pressing keys on your PC keyboard. You can adjust the middle visible C key (4) with the octave value (3). The data 2 volume of each note will be the value adjusted at volume (2). If you want to change the selected volume value in larger intervals please use the right mouse button when clicking at + or -. The MIDI channel will be the one adjusted at MIDI channel (1).

All Note On events which reach MIDI Locator's MIDI output routines are painted as "down pressed" keys. So all keys you press on the Virtual MIDI Keyboard itself give a visible feedback, and also the Note On events (of the adjusted MIDI channel) currently created by a playing sequence.

If a MIDI channel is selected on the keyboard, which is currently set as "use for rythm", the single drum instrument names are painted on each key. This even uses the different drum instrument names in different drum sets and MIDI modes.
