MIDI realtime parameters and effects
Introduction
For each MIDI track, you can set up a number of track parameters, or modifiers, and
MIDI effects. These affect how the MIDI data is played back, “transforming” MIDI
events in realtime before they are sent to the MIDI outputs.
On the following pages, the available parameters and effects are described. Keep in
mind:
- The actual MIDI events will not be affected – the changes happen “on the fly”.
- Since the modifier settings do not change the actual MIDI data on the track, they
will not be reflected in the MIDI editors. To convert the track settings into “real”
MIDI events, use the Freeze MIDI Modifiers function or the Merge MIDI in Loop
function (see
“Making your settings permanent” on page 473).
The Inspector – general handling
The MIDI modifiers and effects are set up in the Inspector (although some settings are
available in the MixConsole as well).
• To show the Inspector, click the “Set up Window Layout” button on the toolbar
and activate the Inspector option.
The Inspector is displayed to the left of the track list.
• For MIDI tracks, several sections are available in the Inspector. Which of these are
displayed is determined in the setup context menu or the Setup dialog of the
Inspector.
For information about setting up the Inspector, see “Using the Setup options” on
page 700.
• You can fold or unfold the sections individually by clicking on the section name.
Clicking the name for a hidden section brings it to view and hides the other
sections. [Ctrl]/[Command]-clicking the tab allows you to hide or show a section
without affecting other sections. [Alt]/[Option]-clicking a tab shows or hides all
sections in the Inspector.
