3 Select the option for Scale By with a percent-
age value of 50.
4 Click Apply. The durations for the selected
notes are reduced by 50%.
With this option you may have to experiment
with the percentage value to achieve the desired
effect.
To make notes more legato:
1 Select the range of MIDI notes to be edited.
2 Choose MIDI > Change Duration.
3 Select the “Extend Release to the Next Attack”
option.
4 Click Apply. The end points for the selected
notes are extended to the start point of the next
note, thereby eliminating the space between
each note.
To vary this effect, making it more or less legato,
select the Add No More Than percentage option.
Percentage values larger than 100 extend note
end times so that the notes essentially overlap.
Transpose
While the Grabber Tool can be used to manually
transpose individual MIDI notes, or small
groups of notes, the Transpose command can be
used for entire MIDI tracks and regions.
To open the Transpose window:
■ Choose MIDI > Transpose.
The two options for the Transpose command
are:
Transpose By (Semitones) Transposes chromati-
cally, up or down, by up to 60 semitones. To
transpose down by an octave, for example, use
–12 semitones.
Transpose (From and To) Transposes by semi-
tones, as expressed by the difference between
the source and destination pitches. Transposing
from C3 to F#3, for example, transposes the
notes up by an augmented fourth (six semi-
tones).
