Different Settings within the Same Staff

If you cannot seem to find the appropriate display parameters for a particular MIDI

Region, keep in mind that you can divide a MIDI Region, using the Scissors tool

(directly in the Score window). This will leave the MIDI playback unaltered, but provides

the option to assign different display parameters (e.g. display quantization) for the

resulting shorter Regions. Since these divided Regions still connect to each other, they

will be displayed as a continuous staff.

Default Settings for New Sequences

If a new MIDI Region is created with either the Pencil tool in the Arrange window, or

through MIDI recording, Logic always applies the Default parameters (see “MIDI Region

Playback Parameters” on page 141) to that MIDI Region. These can be seen and edited

in the Display Parameter box, when no MIDI Region is selected (The title line says Insert

Defaults to indicate this status). These settings will remain as you set them until you

quit Logic, but can be changed any time.

Click on any empty spot in the main working area (below or above the score), to

display the Insert Defaults. You can now edit any of the parameters. (for example, to set

Qua to the display quantize setting that you will use for most Regions in that song)

From this point on, all new Regions will get these settings as soon as they are created.

If Qua is set to default here, the Qua setting of newly recorded or created Regions will

depend on the Global Format Value in the Transport window.

The default setting for Score Styles (Style) is not defined here, but separately for each

Track Instrument, in the bottom line of the Instrument Parameter box, in the Arrange

window.

Changing the Settings for Several Sequences Simultaneously

This is possible, if all desired Regions are selected. In the top line of the Display

Parameter box, you will see an indication of how many Regions or objects (if the

selection includes folders) are currently selected (for example 3 Sequences sel.), instead

of the MIDI Region name. If these Regions have differing values for any of the

parameters, a “*“ will be displayed in the corresponding line. If you change this value,

all selected Regions will now have the same value for that particular parameter.

There are two special functions for multiple selection of Regions in the Score window:

• Clicking on the title line in the Event Parameter box selects all Regions that are

included in the current display.

• Clicking on an instrument name in the column between the parameters and score,

selects all Regions for that particular Track Instrument (even Regions spread across

different tracks assigned to that instrument), at the current display level. Remember,

the instrument name column is only displayed, if View > Instrument Names is

activated.
