104 MIDI Objects
www.magix.com
Here various tools are available, e.g. pencil or eraser.
Fundamentally, changes, e.g. moving or deleting notes, always refer to all
selected MIDI events (red) with just a few exceptions. Changes to the selection
in a range always apply to every other range as well. For example, you can
select a group of notes in the piano roll and then change the velocity of these
note groups which modifies all selected notes simultaneously.
Note display in the piano roll and the controller editor (with velocity curves)
All of the unselected notes are highlighted in blue. The intensity of the color
indicates the velocity of the note; the darker/stronger the color, the higher the
velocity.
Selected notes are highlighted in red. Again, higher velocity notes are brighter
than lower velocity ones.
Note: You can also customize the velocity color range for selected notes. To
do this, open the graphics file "vel_sel_map.bmp" from the bitmap directory
and modify the color spectrum accordingly.
Current event: This is displayed in bright red and with a red outline. The
properties of the currently selected event are displayed in the edit fields above
the piano roll. An event is "current" when it is selected with the mouse.
Event display filters
To get a better overview of a MIDI object's events, you can filter specific
events for the display.
A MIDI object can contain events in up to 16 channels and up to 16 MIDI
tracks (original track from the imported standard MIDI file). For example, it's
possible to control a multi-output VST instrument using a single object on
several MIDI channels. Notes in the corresponding MIDI editor can be edited
simultaneously or only in one selected channel within this object.
There are comfortable viewing options available for this:
A channel filter ("Options" menu) enables all or only selected channels to be
displayed. Notes in the remaining channels are grayed out and cannot be
manipulated by the selection tool.
