Adding and editing Poly Pressure events
Poly Pressure events are special, in that they “belong to” a
specific note number (key). That is, each Poly Pressure
event has two editable values: the note number and the
amount of pressure. Therefore, when Poly Pressure is se-
lected on the event type pop-up menu, there are two value
fields to the left of the controller display, one for the note
number and one for the amount.
To add a new Poly Pressure event, proceed as follows:
1. Select Poly Pressure on the event type pop-up menu.
2. Set the note number by clicking on the keyboard dis-
play.
The selected note number is displayed in the upper value field to the left
of the controller display. Note that this only works for the topmost lane. If
you have selected “Poly Pressure” for several controller lanes, you have
to type in the desired note number directly in the lower value field to the
left of each lane.
3. Use the Pencil tool to add a new event, just as when
adding regular controller events.
To view and edit existing Poly Pressure events, proceed
as follows:
1. Select Poly Pressure on the event type pop-up menu.
2. Click on the arrow button next to the note number field
to the left of the controller lane.
A pop-up menu appears, listing all note numbers for which there already
are Poly Pressure events.
3. Select a note number from the pop-up menu.
The Poly Pressure events for the selected note number are shown in the
controller lane.
4. Use the Pencil tool to edit the events as usual.
Press [Alt]/[Option] to edit existing events without adding any new ones.
• Poly Pressure events can also be added and edited in
the List Editor.
