the Piano Roll Editor menu bar first.
View multiple regions in the Piano Roll Editor in
Logic Pro
You can view the contents of several selected MIDI regions, all MIDI regions in a folder, or
all MIDI regions in a project using Link modes.
When multiple MIDI regions are displayed in the Piano Roll Editor, you can freely select
note events from different MIDI regions, and edit them. A help tag indicates the number of
selected events and their parent MIDI regions. For example, 8/2 means that eight notes are
selected from two MIDI regions.
When viewing multiple MIDI regions, you can temporarily display only the region of a note
by double-clicking the note.
View the contents of multiple MIDI regions
• In Logic Pro, Shift-click multiple MIDI regions in the Tracks area.
Notes from all of the selected regions appear in the Piano Roll Editor. The start point of
each MIDI region is indicated by a vertical line of the same color as the MIDI region itself.
Show only the region for a particular note
• In Logic Pro, double-click the note.
• To return to the previous view, do one of the following:
• Double-click the Piano Roll Editor background.
• Select a different region.
Split chords in the Piano Roll Editor in Logic Pro
The following functions let you divide chords by pitch and assign notes to different MIDI
channels by pitch.
Select the top or bottom note of selected chords
In Logic Pro, do one of the following:
• Choose Edit > Select > Highest Notes from the Piano Roll Editor menu bar to select the
highest notes in the chords.
• Choose Edit > Select > Lowest Notes to select the lowest notes in the chords.
These commands can be used with regions containing chords to separate the top note of
each chord (often the melody), or to separate the bottom note of each chord for a bass line.
Once selected, the notes can be cut or copied, and pasted into a region on a different track.
Note: Highest Notes and Lowest Notes only select the notes. They can be used in conjunction
with other editing commands, such as Cut, to move a voice into another MIDI region.
