The Logical Editor, Transformer, and Input Transformer
Ö The Conditions for the “Property” filter target are dif-
ferent, see “Searching for properties” on page 445.
Below, the different Filter Targets (and their correspond-
ing Condition and Parameter options) are described in
more detail.
Searching for elements at certain positions
(Logical Editor only)
Selecting “Position” in the Filter Target column lets you
find elements starting at certain positions, either relative to
the start of the song or within each bar.
• If you select any condition other than the Range or Bar
Range options, you set up a specific position (in PPQ, sec
-
onds, samples, or frames) in the Parameter 1 column. Use
the Bar Range/Time Base column to specify the time base.
Here, the Logical Editor will find all elements at 1.1.1.0 in the project.
• If you select Inside Range or Outside Range in the Con-
dition column, you set the start position of the range in the
Parameter 1 column and the end position in the Parameter
2 column. You can also change the time base using the
Bar Range/Time Base column.
The Logical Editor will then find all elements inside or outside this posi-
tion range.
• If you select one of the Bar Range options in the Condi-
tion column, the Bar Range/Time Base column will show a
graphic bar display. You specify the range within the bar
by clicking and dragging in the bar display (the specified
Bar Range is indicated in blue).
The Logical Editor will then find all elements starting inside or outside
this Bar Range, in all bars (within the current selection).
Here, the Logical Editor will find elements starting around the second
beat in each bar.
Searching for notes of certain lengths
(Logical Editor only)
Only note events have lengths (actually, a note is made up
of separate note-on and note-off events but in Cubase it is
considered as a single event with a length). Therefore, the
“Length” Filter Target is only valid if you are specifically
searching for notes – there has to be another condition
line with the Filter Target “Type”, Condition “Equal” and
Parameter 1 set to “Note”. See
“Combining multiple con-
dition lines” on page 446 for details about using multiple
filter conditions.

1 column.

set up in the Parameter 1 column.

Parameter 1 and Parameter 2 columns.

lection.

Beyond Cur-

Inside Track

Inside Cycle

…is inside the set cycle (Position only).
Exactly match-

…exactly matches the set cycle (Position only).
Note is equal
