You could focus on how the piece sounds and when you have it the way you want, make a duplicate and clean it up from a notation point of view. For notation, I would just use a fermata where the matrix editor is messing with the notation. I love the fact that RG is a musical swiss army knife but that does, as Lorenzo pointed out, introduce trade offs. If you want the best out of the sequencer and the notation editor, I would make 2 files.
