billscores Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 I'm hoping someone out there can help me. I'm relatively new to Logic and I'm searching for some basic functionality I've grown accustomed to in other platforms. Here's my question: Say I've drawn an elaborate contour of CC 11 and I want to tweak it. So far I know I can marquee select a range of CC and drag it vertically and this 'scales' the contour up or down. That's useful, but in this case I want to move the data uniformly up or down. In DP I can hold a modifier key while dragging and toggle between scaling and moving the data uniformly. I can't find the modifier key in Logic. I've tried all the usual suspects. I'm assuming there is one. Am I missing something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Try dragging a node rather than a line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billscores Posted December 19, 2018 Author Share Posted December 19, 2018 I'm getting the same result. It scales all the selected data. I must be missing something. I'd like to increase or decrease the selected CC data by a fixed amount -- i.e. +20, -20. I get scaling, regardless of what I drag in the selection.

Eric Cardenas Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Try dragging the line instead of a node (or anywhere if using a dedicated editor). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billscores Posted December 20, 2018 Author Share Posted December 20, 2018 Dragging a line does it. Thank you for illustrating this. So the catch is, if the CC contour is a continuous stream of nodes (i.e. entered via MIDI controller), one cannot grab a line between them without the cursor auto-selecting the nearest node, so one must zoom in, or create a 'handle line' for this functionality. Got it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
