Delete notes in the Piano Roll Editor in Logic Pro
You can delete notes from MIDI regions, and delete notes meeting certain criteria.
Delete one or more notes
In Logic Pro, do one of the following:
• Select the notes, then press Delete.
• Select the notes, then click one of the selected notes with the Eraser tool.
• Select the Eraser tool, then click the notes you want to delete.
Delete similar or equal events
1. In Logic Pro, select one of the notes you want to delete.
2. Choose Edit > Select > Select Similar Events or Edit > Select > Select Equal Events
(notes of the same pitch, for example) from the Piano Roll Editor menu bar, then delete
the selected events by pressing Delete.
You can also delete events by choosing Edit > Delete MIDI Events from the Piano Roll Editor
menu bar, then choosing an option from the submenu.
Delete doubled events
• In Logic Pro, choose Edit > Delete MIDI Events > Duplicates from the Piano Roll Editor
menu bar, or use the Delete Duplicated Events key command (D).
Any events occurring twice or more at the same position (and pitch) are deleted, allowing
one to remain. This is true regardless of whether the duplicates have different velocity,
aftertouch, or controller values. Events on different MIDI channels are not considered
duplicates.
The “same time position” includes two notes that are output simultaneously because of the
current quantization setting.
Delete events inside or outside the locators
1. In Logic Pro, set the left and right locator positions.
2. Choose one of the following from the Piano Roll Editor menu bar:
• Functions > Delete MIDI Events > Inside Locators
• Functions > Delete MIDI Events > Outside Locators
When copying events or reducing the length of MIDI regions, events can sometimes end
up outside the limits of a MIDI region. These technically still belong to the MIDI region,
although they won’t be played or heard.
