Legato Overlap
Determines the result of the Legato function on the MIDI menu.
•If Legato Overlap is set to 0 Ticks, the Legato function extends each
selected note so that it reaches the next note exactly.
•Setting Legato Overlap to a positive value causes the notes to overlap
by the specified number of ticks.
•Setting Legato Overlap to a negative value makes the Legato function
leave a slight gap between the notes.
Legato Mode: Between Selected Notes Only
When this is activated, the length of selected notes will be adjusted so that
they reach the next selected note, allowing you to apply Legato only to your
bass line, for example.
Split MIDI Events
If you split a MIDI part in the Project window (with the Cut tool or one of the
split functions) so that the split position intersects one or several MIDI notes,
the result depends on this setting.
•If Split MIDI Events is activated, the intersected notes are split. This
creates new notes at the beginning of the second part.
•If Split MIDI Events is deactivated, the notes will remain in the first part,
but stick out after the end of the part.
Split MIDI Controllers
If you split a MIDI part containing controllers, the result depends on this
setting:
• If Split MIDI Controllers is activated and the part contains a controller
with a value other than zero at the split position, a new controller event
(of the same type and value) will be inserted at the split position (at the
start of the second part).
• If Split MIDI Controllers is deactivated, no new controller events will be
inserted.
NOTE
If you just split a part and play back the result, it will sound the same
regardless of this setting. However, if you split a part and delete the first half
or move the second half to a different position in the project, you may want to
activate Split MIDI Controllers to make sure all controllers have the correct
value at the beginning of the second part.
