  1. Sadly no. And it’s so easy to implement, you would think this would be a feature in 2020.
  2. Honestly, I echo this. Not that Logic is perfect, but your missing feature is something I typically do in 1 second: copy(cmd c), paste in place (cmd opt v), drag edges. Done. Paste in place? Cmd opt v? That's nowhere to be found.
  3. Ah, I get it now. I thought you were talking about sustained long notes that split. I just tried it, and yes, you're right. Logic doesn't handle MIDI region splitting that way, I don't think it ever has... unless someone else can chime in and correct me! To my knowledge, it's not possible to do what you're asking in Logic. If this is a feature that is important to you, you might want to postpone your plans of moving over to Logic. It just doesn't have it. Honestly, I've never 'missed' this feature in all of my years of using Logic. I didn't know it was a thing until you brought it up. Once I split a MIDI region, I don't see a need to drag it out. When I want to split a region, I have a deliberate reason to split it. If I wanted to retain the region for whatever reason, I would quickly hit my key command for 'Repeat Region' and then do my edits on the 'original' MIDI region. Or I would utilize the new Alternatives feature. Thanks so much for your help. I now know I just had to find another DAW. I was originally told that Logic's MIDI was as good as Cubase, DP, or REAPER so I wanted to see. I'm sorry to find out that's not the case. I appreciate you taking the time to respond.
  4. Ok, could you please upload a link or something of this feature in the other DAWs you mentioned because I'm obviously not getting the question... I'm still open to help not just because Logic is my beloved DAW, but because I know that some of its features are a bit hidden. It would be hard to find a video breaking something as simple as that down since every other DAW does it. Basically, the feature is like so: 1. I record a midi clip with the notes C, D, E, F, and G 2. I split the clip before the F, G. 3. I then move that clip and when I drag the left edge out, it would reveal the C, D, E as if the clip was never split.
  5. Wait, did you try the thing I suggested (Choose "Keep" when you get the pop-up message after you split a MIDI region.)? I tried it, and it definitely retains the MIDI notes when you drag the region out. Choosing "Keep" doesn't refer to retaining the notes of the entire clip. I appreciate you trying to help me...most other users are too tribal to come to grips with the fact that they're beloved DAW is seriously lacking. I'm trying to make the change to Logic Pro X but it's hard to take a program seriously that doesn't do something all of the other DAWs on the market does. SMH
  6. If Albeton, Studio One and Reaper are able to do the same thing that I showed in my video, it's because each handles that in it's own "internal way". If you create a MIDI Region in Studio One and cut it and export that CUT MIDI Region and try to import that into Albeton let's say, Ableton will be able to see that MIDI Region but if you try to expand it like what I showed in my video, it will not see any of the original MIDI Region before it was cut in Studio One. That's because MIDI 1.0 Specifications doesn't support saving "original MIDI Region" to be recalled later when you expand a MIDI Region. That's only possible within each sequencer using it's own "internal way". So to answer your question, yes, Logic Pro X's "internal way" is using Green Apple Loops, not Blue Apple Loops. So in short, (even though every other DAW on the market can do this) Logic Pro X can't do this??
  7. I've actually purchased the Logic Pro X 10.3 book from this site just to help me with this and I still can't find the answer: Is there a way to retain the notes before a split on a MIDI region? For example, if I split a MIDI region into two and move the second part somewhere, that when I drag the left edge of the region out the notes from before the split would be there (like in Ableton, Studio One, REAPER....really like in every other DAW). Thanks.
  8. I would love to know the answer to this question also.
