The Logical Editor, Transformer, and Input Transformer
Setting up filter conditions
Searching for elements at certain positions (Logical Editor only)
Selecting “Position” in the Filter Target column lets you find elements starting at
certain positions, either relative to the start of the song or within each bar.
• If you select any condition other than the Range or Bar Range options, you set up
a specific position (in PPQ, seconds, samples, or frames) in the Parameter 1
column. Use the Bar Range/Time Base column to specify the time base.
Here, the Logical Editor will find all elements at 1.1.1.0 in the project.
• If you select Inside Range or Outside Range in the Condition column, you set the
start position of the range in the Parameter 1 column and the end position in the
Parameter 2 column. You can also change the time base using the Bar
Range/Time Base column.
The Logical Editor will then find all elements inside or outside this position range.
• If you select one of the Bar Range options in the Condition column, the Bar
Range/Time Base column will show a graphic bar display. You specify the range
within the bar by clicking and dragging in the bar display (the specified Bar Range
is indicated in blue).
The Logical Editor will then find all elements starting inside or outside this Bar
Range, in all bars (within the current selection).
Here, the Logical Editor will find elements starting around the second beat in each bar.
Searching for notes of certain lengths (Logical Editor only)
Only note events have lengths (actually, a note is made up of separate note-on and
note-off events but in Cubase it is considered as a single event with a length).
Therefore, the “Length” Filter Target is only valid if you are specifically searching for
notes – there has to be another condition line with the Filter Target “Type”, Condition
“Equal” and Parameter 1 set to “Note”. See
“Combining multiple condition lines” on
page 589 for details about using multiple filter conditions.
Searching for Value 1 or Value 2
A MIDI event is composed of several values. What is displayed for Value 1 and 2
depends on the type of event:
Event type Value 1 Value 2
Notes The Note Number/Pitch. The velocity of the note.
Poly Pressure The key that was pressed. The amount of pressure for the
key.
Controller The type of Controller,
displayed as a number.
The amount of Control Change.
Program Change The Program Change
number.
Not used.
Aftertouch The amount of pressure. Not used.
Pitchbend The “fine-tune” of the bend.
Not always used.
The coarse amount of bend.
