SEQUENCE EDITOR
389
Event flags are handled just like other data types in
the Sequence Editor: they have their own layer,
they can be inserted using the Pencil tool and the
Insert menu, and so forth. To change the setting for
an event flag, press on it and choose the desired
setting from the menu as shown above in
Figure 38-57. To move an event flag, simply drag it.
To delete it, click to select it and press delete.
When event flags are displayed very close together
(due to their proximity and the current horizontal
zoom level), they are combined into a single flag.
Click the flag to see a menu of the separate events at
that location.
THE VIEW FILTER
In the Sequence Editor, the View Filter serves two
useful functions. It allows you to control what
types of data you can see and edit in the window. In
essence, the View Filter acts like an edit filter: if a
type of data, such as pitch bend, is visible in the
window, it will be affected by editing commands. If
the data type is not visible in the window, it cannot
be edited.
For information about using the View Filter, see
“View Filter” on page 314.
SCROLLING DURING PLAYBACK
The Auto Scroll command (View menu > Scroll)
controls how the Sequence Editor scrolls during
playback. For example, the playback wiper can
travel across the window, or the window can scroll
beneath a stationary wiper that remains anchored
in the middle of the window. See “Auto scroll” on
page 216.
SCRUBBING IN THE SEQUENCE EDITOR
There are several ways to scrub in the Sequence
Editor:
■ With the playback wiper — scrubs all play-
enabled MIDI tracks. For more information, see
“Scrubbing multiple MIDI tracks” on page 218.
■ With the Scrub tool (Figure 38-1 on page 356)
— when you drag horizontally in the note grid of a
MIDI track (with notes chosen as the active layer),
you’ll hear only that MIDI track. When you drag
horizontally on a soundbite with the scrub cursor,
it will pop-edit and scrub the soundbite.
■ While trimming — if Audible Mode is turned
on, soundbites scrub while being trimmed.
THE MOVIE TRACK
The movie track displays the movie you’ve opened
in the Digital Performer project, if any. Frames are
displayed as frequently as possible, given the
horizontal frame size. Frames will never overlap,
but if you zoom in further than the resolution of
the movie frames (such as 15 frames per second),
movie frames might be repeated in the display (if
there’s room) until the next frame occurs.
All of the controls for the Movie window, such as
the movie start time, are available in the track
setting panel to the left of the movie track. For
details about these settings, see “Movie Window”
on page 297.
THE CONDUCTOR TRACK
The Conductor track in the Sequence Editor
operates just like the Conductor track in the
Graphic Editor. See “Editing in the Conductor
Track” on page 4 14.
