Chapter 12 Event List 303
Status
This is where you can see the event type, as specified by the status byte of a MIDI
message. You cannot directly edit this parameter.
Cha
The MIDI channel used to record an event.
Remember that this MIDI channel will be replaced by the Channel parameter of the
playback instrument, during playback. The event is only output to the recorded MIDI
channel when the Channel parameter is set to All.
You should also note that the recorded MIDI channel is used to assign a polyphonic
voice to the note in Score Styles.
Num, Val
These columns contain event data bytes. Their meaning depends on the event type:
Length/Info
With controller events, this column shows the controller name.
With SysEx events, the manufacturer’s name.
With pitch bend events, a 14-bit value is displayed here; comprised of the first (Num)
and second (Val) Data bytes, combined. This value can be edited directly here.
With notes or Regions, the length is displayed here.
Here too, the units are bars, beats, divisions, and ticks. For the sake of clarity, when the
length begins with one or more zeros, the “_” symbol is used. The minimum length is 1
tick (_ _ _ 1) not 0 ticks, as simultaneously switching a note on and off wouldn’t make
sense!
Numerical input starts on the right, working to the left—you can enter ticks if desired.
The units can be separated by either spaces, dots, or commas.
End Instead of Length
If you select View > Length as absolute Position, you can make the length display show
the absolute position of the note off event, rather than it’s length from the note on.
