454 Chapter 17 Editing MIDI in the Hyper Editor
Converting Event Definitions
You can redefine an event definition (along with all events). The values of the events
are retained, but the event type is changed to the new event definition.
To convert an event definition and all events:
1 Select the event definition you want to convert.
2 Do one of the following:
 Choose Hyper > Convert Event Definition (or use the corresponding key command).
 Double-click on the name column of the event definition that you want to convert.
3 Choose the desired settings in the Convert Definition dialog, and press the Convert
button.
On the left (Convert), you can see the parameters of the selected event definition, and
on the right you can define the parameters of the destination event type. The current
settings (of the source) are used as default values for the destination.
Enable the Quantize Events checkbox to quantize the event positions to the Grid value
chosen in the right-hand parameter field. If any Delay value is shown on the right, this
is taken into account by the quantization.
If you simply open the Convert Definition dialog, change the Grid value in the right-
hand field, turn on the Quantize Events checkbox (and make no further alterations), the
event positions of the selected event definition lane will be quantized.
