Section 4:Editing sequences 103<br />

next 1/16 after playing each key. If this field is set to NO, this effect<br />

is defeated.<br />

• The DURATION OF RECORDED NOTES field: This field is<br />

used to determine the method by which durations are assigned to<br />

notes recorded from the midi keyboard while in STEP EDIT<br />

mode. This is a choice field and has 2 options: SAME AS STEP<br />

and AS PLAYED:<br />

1. If set to SAME AS STEP, durations are always four clocks<br />

less than the current step size (the current NOTE VALUE<br />

field setting in the TIMING CORRECT screen).<br />

2. If set to AS PLAYED, the actual time the note is held<br />

(relative to the current tempo) is used for the duration value,<br />

even though the sequence is not playing. To guide your<br />

timing, if a key is held down more than one 1/4 note, a<br />

metronome click plays exactly one 1/4 note after the key is<br />

depressed, and plays again for each additional 1/4 note the<br />

key is held down. For example, if you wanted to record a<br />

note with a duration of one 1/2 note, you would play the key<br />

and release it after 2 clicks were heard.<br />

• The STEP EDIT DISPLAY FILTER section: This is a "filter"<br />

similar to the erase filter or the midi input filter, except this one<br />

controls which types of midi events existing in the track get<br />

displayed in the step edit screen. For example, if the only events you<br />

wanted to edit were pitch bend messages, it would be bothersome to<br />

have to view all the other events. Another example would be to<br />

filter out all continuous controller data to make it easier to view only<br />

the notes.<br />

To use the display filter, move the cursor to the VIEW field. This<br />

is a choice field with 3 options:<br />

1. ALL EVENTS: If this option is selected, all<br />

possible event types will be displayed.<br />

2. ONLY VIEW: If this option is selected, only one event<br />

type may be displayed, and the type of event to be<br />

displayed is selected in a new field appearing directly to<br />

the right on the same line. In this rightmost field, all<br />

event types are listed, including all 128 midi controllers,<br />

each individually named as listed in the "Midi 1.0<br />

Detailed Specification, Document Revision 4.0".<br />

3. ALL EXCEPT: This option is similar to ONLY VIEW,<br />

above, except that all event types except the event<br />

displayed to the right of the words ALL EXCEPT are<br />

displayed.
