The Project Logical Editor
Searching for elements of certain lengths
1. Select Length in the Filter Target pop-up menu.
This allows you to find elements of a certain length only. The Length pa-
rameter is interpreted via the time base setting in the Bar Range/Time
Base column, i.e. in PPQ, seconds, samples, or frames.
2. Open the pop-up menu in the Condition column and
select the desired condition.
For lengths, the following options are available:
If you select any condition other than the Range options,
you set up a specific position in the Parameter 1 column.
Here, the Project Logical Editor will find all audio parts and events in
the project with a length smaller than 200 samples.
Searching for properties
1. Select “Property” on the Filter Target pop-up menu.
2. Open the pop-up menu in the Condition column and
select the desired condition.
When the Property option is selected, the Condition column has two op-
tions: “Property is set”, and “Property is not set”.
3. Open the pop-up menu in the Parameter 1 column
and select the desired option.
This sets which property will be searched. The options are “Event is
muted”, “Event is selected”, and “Event is Empty”.
Ö Note that “event” in this context refers to all the Project
window elements that can be modified, e.g. MIDI parts,
audio events and parts, or transpose, arranger, and auto-
mation events.
Three examples:
Here, the Project Logical Editor will find all muted MIDI and instrument
parts.
Here, the Project Logical Editor will find all elements that are selected
but not muted.
Here, the Project Logical Editor will find all selected audio parts that are
empty.
Combining multiple condition lines
As described above, you can add condition lines by click-
ing the Add button (+) below the list. The result of com-
bining condition lines depends on the boolean And/Or
operators and the brackets.
The bool column
By clicking in the “bool” column to the right in the list, you
can select a boolean operator: “And” or “Or”. A boolean
operator combines two condition lines and determines the
result in the following way:
• If two condition lines are combined with a boolean And,
both conditions must be fulfilled for an element to be found.
The Project Logical Editor will only find MIDI tracks.
Condition An element will be found, if it…
Equal …has the exact same value as set up in the Parameter 1
column.
Unequal …has any value other than the one set up in the Parame-
ter 1 column.
Bigger …has a value higher than the one set up in the
Parameter 1 column.
Bigger or
Equal
…has a value that is the same as or higher than the one
set up in the Parameter 1 column.
Less …has a value lower than the one set up in the
Parameter 1 column.
Less or Equal …has a value that is the same as or lower than the one
set up in the Parameter 1 column.
Inside Range …has a value that is between the values set up in the Pa-
rameter 1 and Parameter 2 columns. Note that Parameter
1 should be the lower value and Parameter 2 the higher.
Outside Range …has a value that is not between the values set up in the
Parameter 1 and Parameter 2 columns.
