1) Is there an easy way of chopping midi notes? Lets say for example I have a one bar midinote and want to chop it in 8 1/8 notes.

2) Is there a posibility to draw midi notes? In Ableton I can use the pen tool, set it on 1/8 grid and draw a row of 1/8 notes. In Bitwig I havent found a posibility drawing a line of for example 1/16 notes which is handy when doing drums.

1) In this case I would drag the right edge of the note to take it from one bar to 1/8 (adjusting the grid with `,` and `.` as necessary) Then I would select the note and press Ctrl-D seven times.

2) Similar in this case. Adjust grid, pencil in one 16th note, and then Ctrl-D

- In both cases, an arpreggiator may be appropriate as well, and could offer some additional options.

Use Ctrl+E (command +E on Mac ?) to split notes at the cursor

I've remapped delete from 'delete' key to 'x' so I've presse 'x' on every time, deleting zero width areas = slicing
