468 Chapter 18 Editing MIDI Events in the Event List
Parameter values can only be altered until the (same) parameter value of one of the
selected events has reached its maximum or minimum value.
To override the maximum or minimum value limitation:
m Option-drag on the value, or press Return to confirm a numerical input.
This allows you to continue altering a parameter value in a multiple selection, even
when one of the selected events has reached its maximum or minimum value.
To set a parameter to the same value for all selected events:
m Hold Shift-Option, while using the mouse as a slider, or press Return to confirm a
numerical input.
Note: It is possible to select different event types, and simultaneously alter the
Num(ber) or Val(ue) parameters. Needless to say, this can lead to unexpected, and
disastrous, results. It is highly recommended that you make use of the event filtering
buttons to hide non-matching event types. The enhanced selection functions may also
be of use when creating or editing groups of events.
Deleting and Muting Events
These two functions go hand in hand. It stands to reason that you will often want to
remove events that you have muted.
To mute or unmute a note event:
m Click a note event with the Mute tool.
A dot appears in the Status column of muted note events.
The Edit > Select Muted Regions/Events command is also available in the Event List. It
allows the selection of all muted notes in a MIDI region, making them easy to delete.
To delete events, do one of the following:
m Click them with the Eraser tool.
m Select the events, using any of the techniques and functions discussed earlier, and
press Backspace.
m Choose one of the commands in the Functions > Delete MIDI Events menu.
 Duplicates (default key command: D): Erases all duplicate events.
 Inside or Outside Locators: Erases all MIDI events within/outside the locators.
 Outside Region Borders: Erases all MIDI events that completely fall outside the
region borders, which can happen when regions are resized.
 Unselected Within Selection: Erases all unselected MIDI events within a selection,
such as between locators.
