hecksome Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Hello, I'm wondering if it's possible to select, for example, only beats 2 and 4 in the piano roll. I'd like to be able to set all the backbeats at maximum velocity, but not change the subtle ghost notes that aren't on 2 and 4. Thanks!

David Nahmani Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Are the notes exactly on the grid? If they are you can select the notes you want in the first bar then choose Edit > Select > Same Subpositions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hecksome Posted April 1, 2021 Author Share Posted April 1, 2021 Great. This sounds like what I'm looking for, but not sure how to execute it. Say I have a minute or so of drums in a few different regions. All regions are selected and I'm viewing them in the piano roll. If I highlight one note that's exactly on beat 2, I would think this should select all the beat 2s going forward, but instead it's just selecting the first beat 2 in the second region, third region, etc. Would I have to chop this up into individual bars to make it work? If I consolidate the regions and try again, the subposition doesn't select anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 No it should select all your beat 2 in all bars in all your regions. Can you share a screenshots of your results? How to attach files to your post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hecksome Posted April 1, 2021 Author Share Posted April 1, 2021 Appreciate your help! This screenshot shows what is highlighted after selecting same subpositions. I've had problems using the select overlapping notes function as well. Instead of it selecting any notes that are on the same pitch at the same time (like a double trigger from my midi controller) it'll select the same notes on different pitches vertically (I think?). Maybe I have some weird preference selected... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Are the notes dead on the grid or slightly off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hecksome Posted April 1, 2021 Author Share Posted April 1, 2021 Derp! I guess not! Must've quantized with strength turned down a little. Thanks for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
