I am wondering if there is a shortcut for this:

Working within a MIDI track, I have an extended chord but the start points of each MIDI note slightly differ. If I move the playback wiper to the desired start point for all MIDI notes, is there a key command I can press to line up all the MIDI notes to the position of the playback wiper?

You can drag the selected notes holding the cmd or Apple key. They will snap to equal length. There's a snap to wiper command you can assign from the Commands window.

ps - the cmd drag thing works on note on and note off.

Awesome - I was just about to look for a way to do this when I saw this thread topic. Thanks to both of you!
