Event Operations
Pro Tools provides several commands for
changing event data over a range of time (or
measures).
Event Operations Window
The Event Operations window provides com-
mands to transform groups of MIDI notes to af-
fect pitch, timing, and phrasing. The Quantize
and Restore Performance Event Operations can
also be applied to audio clip start points (or sync
points) or Elastic Audio events. The Event Oper-
ations commands include:
•Quantize
•Change Velocity
•Change Duration
•Transpose
• Select/Split notes
•Input Quantize
•Step Input
•Restore Performance
• Flatten Performance
Quantize
This command lets you adjust the placement of
selected MIDI or audio events in a track using
Grid or Groove Quantize.
Quantize lets you choose from two different
types of quantization.
• Grid Quantize lets you adjust the placement of
selected MIDI events, Elastic Audio events, or
audio clips in a track so that their start or end
points precisely align to the quantization
value chosen.
• Groove Quantize lets you adjust the placement
of selected MIDI events, Elastic Audio events,
or audio clips in a track so that their timings,
durations, and velocities align to the selected
groove template grid. Pro Tools installs sev-
eral pre-defined groove templates for use on
all Pro Tools systems. DigiGroove templates
can be created using Beat Detective.
