Editing MIDI Events and Continuous Controllers (CC)
Changing the Timing of a Recording
To use the Set Measure/Beat At Now command, you need to be able to identify where you want to
put the downbeats of each measure, and possibly where you want to place some other beats of the
measure, if the tempo varies a lot.
1. Display the MIDI clip that you want the measure/beats to align with in the Inline Piano Roll view:
click the MIDI track’s PRV Mode button . Zoom in enough to see the MIDI data clearly (you can
also use the regular Piano Roll view).
2. If you want other MIDI clips that exist in the project to retain their current M:B:T positions, select
the clips, right-click one of them, and choose Clip Lock > Lock Position from the pop-up menu.
3. Turn off the Snap to Grid button, and use the PRV Select tool (it’s in the Track view toolbar)
to click the MIDI clip at the place where you want to set a measure or beat. The Now Time cursor
moves to the place you clicked:
A. Now Time cursor
4. Press CTRL+M to open the Measure Beat/Meter dialog.
Tip:
To make it easier to visually align note events with the Time Ruler, drag the MIDI track to the
top position so it appears right below the Time Ruler.
