Recording notes and Note Expression data

To record MIDI notes together with Note Expression data using an external MIDI device, proceed as follows:

Procedure

  1. Create an instrument track, e. g. using HALion Sonic SE as VST instrument.

    The Note Expression Inspector section shows which parameters are available for recording.

    • You can also load one of the available presets. Some presets were created especially for the use with Note Expression. These have the suffix “.NoteExp”.

  2. Select a parameter from the list.
  3. Set up the record mapping for the parameters.

    You can use the data range controls to use only a subrange of the full parameter range. This allows for finer recording and editing.

  4. Record some MIDI notes and use the mapped controls on your MIDI device to record the corresponding Note Expression data.
  5. Open the Key Editor and activate the “Show Note Expression Data” button on the toolbar.

    The Note Expression data is shown on the notes for which it was recorded.
