To Open Non-SONAR Envelope Display on a Percentage
Scale
You can globally configure the placement of 0 dB for your envelopes in the
Clips pane. The default placement in the Clips pane of 0 dB is roughly 1/3
from the top of the clip. You can change the position of 0 dB in all
envelopes to the middle of the clip.
There are several advantages when using the Envelope Display on a
Percentage Scale option:
• It makes it easier to tell if there have been any changes.
• There is a finer resolution around 0 dB.
Note: In Envelope mode, newly created volume clips appear at the same
dB value as the current Vol setting. For example, if the Vol setting is +3 dB,
a newly created volume envelope appears above the middle of the clip.
To Display Envelopes on a Percentage Scale
1. Select Options-Global to open the Global Options dialog.
2. In the General tab, click the Display Envelopes on Percentage Scale
checkbox.
3. Click OK.
Converting MIDI Envelopes to Shapes
MIDI controllers you edit in the Piano Roll view and MIDI envelopes you
create in the Track view Clips pane are actually separate data, even if they
control the same parameter. Both kinds of envelopes are visible in the Clips
pane, and should generally not be used to control the same parameter. You
can convert Piano Roll view envelopes to Track view envelopes by
selecting the time range and tracks that the Piano Roll envelopes occupy,
and using the Edit-Convert MIDI To Shapes command.
To Convert MIDI Controller Envelopes to Shapes
1. In the Clips pane, select the time range and track(s) that contain the
controller data you want to convert.
2. Use the Edit-Convert MIDI To Shapes command.
