MIDI processing and quantizing
Fixed Velocity
This function sets the velocity of all selected notes to the
Insert Velocity value on the toolbar in the MIDI editors.
Thin Out Data
Thins out MIDI data. Use this to ease the load on your ex-
ternal MIDI devices if you have recorded very dense con-
troller curves etc.
You can also manually thin out the controller data by using
the quantize function in the Key Editor.
Extract MIDI Automation
This is an extremely useful function as it allows you to
quickly and easily convert the continuous controllers of
your recorded MIDI parts into MIDI track automation data,
making them available for editing in the Project window.
Proceed as follows:
1. Select the desired MIDI part containing the continuous
controller data.
2. Select “Extract MIDI Automation”. (This command is
also available on the Key Editor context menu.)
The controller data will automatically be removed from the controller lane
in the editor.
3. In the Project window, open the automation track for
the respective MIDI track. When you select one the con-
tinuous controllers from the parameter pop-up menu, the
respective automation data will be displayed on the auto-
mation track.
This function can only be used for continuous controllers.
Data such as Aftertouch, Pitchbend or SysEx cannot be
converted to MIDI track automation data.
Ö Remember that to be able to hear the automation data,
you have to activate the Read button for the respective au-
tomation track(s).
Reverse
This function inverts the order of the selected events (or of
all events in the selected parts), causing the MIDI music to
play backwards. Note that the effect is different from re-
versing an audio recording. With MIDI, the individual notes
will still play as usual in the MIDI instrument – it is only the
order of playback that is changed.
