Searching for Events
Editing MIDI Events and Controllers
The event filter only accepts events that meet all the specified ranges. This
means that a note event must fall within the pitch range, the velocity range,
and the duration range in order to be included. The event filter can also be
used to accept events that occur in a range of channel numbers, beats, and
clock ticks.
You can choose either to include or exclude the events that meet the
specified criteria. To exclude events within the designated range and select
the ones outside the designated range, check the exc checkbox for that
value range.
The event filter can also be used to identify several special event types:
audio, System Exclusive events, Lyrics, MCI commands, envelope shades,
and a few others. You do not enter a range of values for these special
events; SONAR finds all events of the types you choose.
The All and None buttons help you set up the event filter the way you want:
In any place in the event filter where you would normally enter a pitch string,
you can also enter the pitch by pressing a key on your MIDI keyboard. Also,
you can use the question mark in place of the octave number as a wild card.
This lets the event filter accept a single note, regardless of the octave. For
example, the pitch string C? will match a C in any octave.

All Set the event filter to include all events. You can
then modify the value ranges to narrow down
your search or uncheck the types of events you
want to exclude.

Starting from a blank slate, you can check off the
types of events you want to find or select and
enter the desired ranges of values.
