David Nahmani Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Is there some king of a « Set duration to... » command for MIDI notes ? I can't find such a thing, it could be useful for me... Can you start a new topic for this new question? And add a few details regarding what you're trying to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakobP Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 You could quantize the notes first to e.g. 1/32 and then try the command, After deletion turn quantize off again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bebop26 Posted June 15, 2021 Author Share Posted June 15, 2021 Very good idea, Jakob, thanks.l David, if I need more help on this, I'll start a new topic. Thanks again Jakob, David, and the others before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ValliSoftware Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 The notes have different positions so they're not exact duplicates. +1 If the positions are off a hair but you know you want them to be at a certain beat, quantize first, then do option+d This sounds even crazy, but you could create a script that receives a note-on and saves that and if you get another note-on without a note-off of the same note, discard those incoming same notes until you receive a note-off. The MIDI region would still contain the duplicates but no duplicates will get played. In order to clear the duplicates you'd have to put on a External Instrument the Midi Region and your script and go thru IAC to MIDI record, then you'd have a non-duplicate notes. This is incase you don't want to quantize your events. Yes, I do this all the time as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bebop26 Posted June 15, 2021 Author Share Posted June 15, 2021 Sorry, but can I ask a last question in this topic, because I think that it is related to what has been discussed here. What is exactly that last number of the last column in the event list window ? After quantizing, all the data of the duplicates is really identical now, except for the last number of the last column of the event list. So... even after quantization, my duplicates are not really duplicates. Do the numbers of the last column, specially the last number, express the lenght of the note ? If so, then the numbers should be identical after quantization, isn't it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakobP Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 The numbers in the last column represents midi ticks, quote from the manual: "tick The smallest unit of timing resolution in a MIDI sequencer. In Logic Pro, this equals 1/3840 of a note." On your screenshot the notes is only off by one tick in position and two ticks in length, so I tried with 4 ticks off both in position and length, and it works here...

Bebop26 Posted June 15, 2021 Author Share Posted June 15, 2021 (edited) Well, I hesitate to insist to much on this, I wonder if I send to many questions... To be honest, for a reason I do not understand, it DOES work in some songs, but in other songs (or tracks?), it SEEMS like if the quantization does not work, so the delete duplicates does not work in those songs or tracks... There's something that confuses me... In fact, all that time I was trying to do it in a song where it does not work. The minute I tried it in another song, I could do it very easily. So there's something I do not understand about quantizing : why does it work sometimes, and not at other times. But I think this should be another topic, because now, the main point of this topic is solved. Thanks again, I really appreciate this help !

JakobP Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Make sure all notes are selected when quantizing ? Make sure by having event list open as in my gif ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bebop26 Posted June 15, 2021 Author Share Posted June 15, 2021 Yes, all notes were selected and event list opened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakobP Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Ok, I read your edit, and I agree it might be best to start a new thread about the quantize problem... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bebop26 Posted June 15, 2021 Author Share Posted June 15, 2021 OK, thank you Jakob, David, Valli, des99, Fisherking... merci beaucoup ! (I will try to investigate by myself before starting a new topic). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
