Chapter 26: MIDI Operations 611
Add Select to add the specified duration to the
current duration of each note.
Subtract Select to subtract the specified duration
from the current duration of each note.
Scale Select to scale the current duration of each
note by a percentage from 1 to 400%.
Legato/Gap Select to extend each note to the
following note. The specified duration is the
subtracted to create a consistent gap between
notes.
Legato/Overlap Select to extend each note to the
following note. The specified duration is then
added to create a consistent amount of overlap.
Duration Amount
If the Ticks or Notes pop-up menu is set to ticks,
enter a duration as a number of quarter-notes
plus a number of ticks, such as 4|000. If the Ticks
or Notes pop-up menu is set to a note size, enter
a number to by which to multiply that note size,
such as 7 16th-notes.
Ticks or Notes Pop-Up Menus
The Ticks or Notes pop-up menu lets you select
either Ticks or a note size for Note Durations.
There is also a Ticks or Notes pop-up menu for
the Minimum and Maximum Durations op-
tions.
Minimum and Maximum Durations
Enable either or both minimum and maximum
durations and enter a value in quarter notes plus
ticks or as a multiple of a note size. The Mini-
mum and Maximum Durations options are only
available in the expanded Real-Time Properties
window.
Delay
Delay lets you delay or advance all MIDI data in
the selected region or track. Select “+” from the
Delay pop-up menu to delay MIDI data, or select
“–” to advance MIDI data. Select Ticks or Milli-
seconds from the Ticks or Milliseconds pop-up
menu. Enter the Delay amount in Tick or Milli-
second values. Delay is limited to a maximum of
value of 2000 ms or 999 ticks.
Velocity
Velocity lets you change MIDI velocity by a per-
centage or by constant value. Enter a percentage
value in the Dynamics field to scale velocity
around the median velocity of 64. You can also
enter an offset by adding (+) or subtracting (–)
values between 1 and 127. You can also enter
Minimum and Maximum Velocity value limits.
The Minimum and Maximum Durations op-
tions are only available in the expanded Real-
Time Properties window.
Velocity can be applied as a Real-Time Property
to MIDI Input and Thru.
Transpose
Transpose lets you transpose MIDI notes up or
down by a specified number of octaves and
semitones, or in key by scale steps (based on the
Key Signature ruler). You can also transpose to a
specified pitch. Select By, To, or In from the
Transpose pop-up menu to transpose by an in-
terval, to a specific pitch, or in key by scale steps.
To transpose by an interval, enter the desired
number of octaves and semitones as a positive
or negative numbers.
To transpose to a specific pitch, enter the de-
sired MIDI note.
