Convert MIDI Clip(s) To Step Sequencer dialog

The Track view Clips > Convert MIDI Clip(s) to Step Sequencer command opens the Convert

MIDI Clip(s) to Step Sequencer dialog box. This command lets you convert any selected MIDI clip

to a step sequencer clip. There are two available options:

• Resolution. The resolution value should correspond to the shortest note value that you expect.

For example, if you specify Sixteenth notes, you will get four steps per beat. The choices are:

• Quarter (1 step per beat)

• Eighth (2 steps per beat)

• Eighth Triplet (3 steps per beat)

• Sixteenth (4 steps per beat)

• Sixteenth Triplet (6 steps per beat)

• 32nd (8 steps per beat)

• 32nd Triplet (12 steps per beat)

• Preserve original timing (using time offsets). Select this option if you want the Step

Sequencer to preserve the original timing of the note events instead of quantizing them to the

nearest step.

See:

“To convert a MIDI clip(s) to a Step Sequencer clip(s)” on page 1965

Copy dialog

The Edit > Copy Special command opens the Copy dialog box, which lets you put on the Clipboard

any selected objects. You can paste the contents of the Clipboard elsewhere. See “Paste dialog” on

page 1771.

To remove rather than copy objects, see “Cut dialog” on page 1715.

To make copies of linked clips, see “Splitting and combining clips” on page 379.

The Copy dialog box has the following fields:

Events in Tracks

If you select this check box, SONAR copies all “Event” on page 2051s in the selected object.

Clip Automation

If you select this check box, SONAR copies all clip automation in the selection.
