Target
The Target button for the MIDI Event List deter-
mines whether or not the MIDI Event List fol-
lows the Edit cursor and Edit selections in the
Edit window and MIDI Editor windows. For ex-
ample, when the Target is enabled, the Events
shown in the MIDI Event List update to show
the event in the Edit selection in the Edit win-
dow. When the Target is disabled, the MIDI
Event List shows the same events regardless of
changes to the Edit selection in other windows.
MIDI Event List Menu
The MIDI Event List menu contains commands
and options for the MIDI Event List (see “MIDI
Event List Options” on page 660).
Columns in the MIDI Event List
Information for the events in the MIDI Event
List is displayed in the following three columns:
Start Column Displays the start location, using
the Main Time Scale, for each event. Locations
can also be displayed in the Sub Time Scale
when the Show Sub Counter option is selected
in the Options pop-up menu.
The playback cursor appears as a blue arrow (red,
when tracks are record-enabled) in the Start col-
umn.
When several events reside at the same location,
the location is only indicated for the top event,
with the others dimmed. The dimmed locations
can be edited by double-clicking them.
Event Column Displays the event type, indicated
by an icon, and associated event values.
Length/Info Column Displays the end point or
length for notes, depending on which option is
selected in the Options pop-up menu. Also dis-
played are the names for continuous controller
events and program changes.
View Filter for MIDI Event List
You can use the View Filter to specify which
event types are displayed in the MIDI Event List.
This can help you zero in on only the events you
want to affect; it also protects MIDI events from
being edited or deleted. Events not displayed in
the MIDI Event List still play back.
The View Filter can be set to display “all” mes-
sages, “only” the specified messages, or “all ex-
cept” the specified messages.
MIDI Event List columns
When inserting an event type that has been
filtered from the MIDI Event List, that event
type will no longer be filtered.
