If you hold ALT while dragging, they notes will automatically snap to grid according to your snap-to-grid -settings. Left click and drag to stretch the selection. In the Piano Roll, select some notes and when you do that, a little ‘circle’ appears after the selected notes. If you dont have a looped sample, you can still use the Piano Roll, but remember your notes may not last as long as you wanted them to. It all works fine apart from the fact that when I press play in Ableton, the first note/beat of anything I've got going on in FL (using its own pattern sequencers/piano roll) is missed the first time through the loop - it just doesn't sound. I’ve also found it very useful with live recordings as sometimes I want to record melodies to Piano Roll live with my MIDI keyboard without metronome or drum beat (just to detach myself from that 4-to-the-floor-machine-like-playing) and it’s a real savior when I want to make the recorded notes fit to time afterwards. Hey folks I'm getting a slight problem using FL Studio 5 as a VSTi with Live 6.

twice as long (or shorter), just drag them with the Stretch Handle – no need to edit the notes one-by-one. if you have a group or sequence of notes and you want to make them all eg. In FL Studio, you can choose to show automation instead of velocity in the lower frame of the piano roll, by right clicking on the gray space in the lower-left of the piano roll, or by selecting it from the drop-down menu on the top bar. It comes very useful when you have a group of notes and you want to make them longer or shorter. After trying a few things I recorded a short, upward bend on one of the notes near the end of the phrase. With it you can quickly ‘stretch’ your notes to make them fit to time. In FL Studio Piano Roll, there’s this very handy little feature called Stretch Handle.
