Chapter 4: Editing Sequence• The Seqnc (sequence) field:In this field, enter the sequence number from which the data will beerased. The sequence name is shown to the right for convenience.• The Track field:This field specifies the track from which the data will be erased. Theactive track is automatically inserted here. To erase all tracks atonce, enter a 0 here. In that case, the Notes field will be forced toALL because it is not possible to select specific notes for erasurewhen erasing all tracks.• The Ticks fields:These two fields are used to set the region to be erased, startingwith the location specified in the leftmost field, through one clockbefore the location specified in the rightmost field. They are bothbar.beat.tick fields, allowing you to set the region to be erased inincrements as small as one tick.• The Erase field:This field allows you to select which types of events will be erased. Itis a choice field with three options:1. ALL EVENTS: If this option is selected, all possible MIDIevent types will be erased.2.

In this rightmostfield, all event types are listed, including all 128 MIDIcontrollers.• The Notes field:This field determines which notes will be erased. It appears in oneof two ways depending on whether the selected track is a Drumtrack or a MIDI track:1. If the source track is a MIDI track, two numeric fields—used to set the lowest and highest notes to erase withinthe MIDI keyboard’s range—will appear as above. Eachof these numeric fields is editable and has a range of 0 to127; the equivalent note name (C-2 to G8) is shown to theright of each field. Alternately, these fields can be set bypressing two notes on the MIDI input device’s keyboard.The fields will automatically be set to the lowest andhighest keys pressed.2. If the source track is a Drum track, this field is used toselect specific MIDI note numbers for erasure, butcannot be accessed by the cursor—it can only bechanged by pressing pads or by receiving externalMIDI notes.
