Velocity
With the Velocity filter you can set a minimum velocity allowed in the track.
If a MIDI event has a lower velocity than the one you set, it is removed.
Duration
With the Duration filter you can set a minimum note duration for the track in
either ticks or milliseconds. If a MIDI event has a shorter duration than the
one you set, it is removed.
To Use the Deglitch Filter
1. Select a track or a section of track.
2. Select Process-Deglitch from the menu.
The Deglitch dialog box appears.
3. Check each of the filters you want to use.
4. Enter the parameters (maximum or minimum values) you want for each
of the filters you are using.
5. Click OK.
If you are not happy with the result, select Edit/Undo from the menu to
restore the original MIDI track.
Working with Triplets
The Staff view places certain limitations on the use of triplets. The
limitations are:
• Triplets must occur in full sets of three.
• All three steps in a triplet must be notes (no rests) of the same basic
duration.
• There can be no ties in or out of, or within the triplet.
In most cases, the Staff view can recognize triplets in MIDI data. However,
the slight timing inaccuracies inherent in live performances can complicate
the detection of triplets. If working from performance data, you may find it
useful to quantize the notes closer to exact triplet positions using the
Process-Quantize command. See Quantizing for details.
To Enter a Triplet
1. Turn on the Snap to Time option.
2. Click the Draw tool .
3. Click the appropriate notehead button.
