from the individual objects retain their original time posi-
tion. Be aware that the individual MIDI channels are re-
placed by the MIDI channel of the current track. The new
object adopts the name and track of the first (timewise) of
the merged objects.
See the section Merge/Normalize and MIDI Channels from
page 134 onwards for more on this.
Demixing Sequences
The function Functions > Demix > Demix by Event Chan-
nel searches the selected sequence for events with differ-
ent MIDI channels. A separate sequence containing all
the relevant events is created for every MIDI channel
found. Each of these sequences is created on a track with
the same MIDI channel. If no such tracks exist the tracks
are created on a track with the original channel.
Muting sequences
Often when you are arranging, you will want to test musi-
cal ideas out by muting certain objects. This is what the
mute tool is for.
You can mute individual or selected objects by clicking on
them with the tool. They are then displayed with a dot be-
fore the object name. Clicking a muted object reverses this
state (unmuting).
You can perform the same function using the Mute Fold-
ers/Sequences key command.
Soloing sequences
You can solo any selected sequences using the Solo button
in the Transport window or the key command of the same
name. Double-clicking on the Solo button “locks” the so-
loed status, so that changing the selection doesn’t affect
what is being soloed. This is especially useful when you
want to make changes to the Playback parameters of a se-
quence while listening to a specific solo group. A further
click (or using the key command again) quits solo mode.
For more on this, read the section Solo and Solo Lock from
page 110 onwards.
The solo tool enables you to solo individual or selected ob-
jects by clicking them and holding down the mouse but-
ton. Release the mouse button to end solo listening.
Naming a Sequence
One sequence: click the sequence with the text marker tool
and a text input box appears. Enter the name and press re-
turn, or click another object, or the background.
The same applies if you are entering the name in the se-
quence parameter box.
