Action Target

This is where you select the property that is changed. The Operations determine what to do with the Action Target.

Below, all available operations are listed:

Position

Adjusting this value will move the elements. This parameter is interpreted via the time base setting in the Bar Range/Time Base column, with the exception of the Random setting, which uses the time base of the affected events:

Add

Adds the value specified in the Parameter 1 column to the Position.

Subtract

Subtracts the value specified in the Parameter 1 column from the Position.

Multiply by

Multiplies the Position value with the value specified in the Parameter 1 column.

Divide by

Divides the Position value by the value specified in the Parameter 1 column.

Round by

This “rounds” the Position value using the value specified in the Parameter 1 column. In other words, the Position value is changed to the closest value that can be divided by the Parameter 1 value.

For example, if the Position value is 17 and Parameter 1 is 5, the result of rounding will be 15 (the closest value that can be divided by 5). Another word for this type of operation would be “quantizing”, and it is actually possible to use it for this, by specifying a quantize value with Parameter 1 (in ticks, with 480 ticks per quarter note).

Set relative Random Values between

This will add a random value to the current Position value. The added random value will be within the range specified with Parameter 1 and 2. Note that these can be set to negative values.

For example, if you set Parameter 1 to -20 and Parameter 2 to +20, the original Position value will get a random variation, never exceeding ±20.

Set to fixed value

This sets the position to the value specified in the Parameter 1 column.

Length

Lets you resize the elements. This parameter is interpreted via the time base setting in the Bar Range/Time Base column, with the exception of the Random setting, which uses the time base of the affected events:

Add

Adds the value specified in the Parameter 1 column to the Length.

Subtract

Subtracts the value specified in the Parameter 1 column from the Length.

Multiply by

Multiplies the Length value with the value specified in the Parameter 1 column.

Divide by

Divides the Length value by the value specified in the Parameter 1 column.

Round by

This “rounds” the Length value using the value specified in the Parameter 1 column. In other words, the Length value is changed to the closest value that can be divided by the Parameter 1 value.

Set to fixed value

This sets the Length to the value specified in the Parameter 1 column.

Set Random Values between

This will add a random value to the current length. The added random value will be within the range specified with Parameter 1 and 2.

Track Operation

This lets you change the track status.

Folder

Opens, closes or toggles folders.

Record

Enables, disables or toggles the record enable status.

Monitor

Enables, disables or toggles the monitor status.

Solo

Enables, disables or toggles the solo status.

Mute

Enables, disables or toggles the mute status.

Read

Enables, disables or toggles the read enable status.

Write

Enables, disables or toggles the write enable status.

EQ Bypass

Enables, disables or toggles the EQ bypass status.

Inserts Bypass

Enables, disables or toggles the inserts bypass status.

Sends Bypass

Enables, disables or toggles the sends bypass status.

Lanes Active

Enables, disables or toggles the lanes active status.

Hide Track

Enables, disables or toggles the track visibility status.

Time Domain

Sets the track time domain to Musical, Linear or toggles the status.

Name

This lets you rename the found elements.

Replace

Replaces names with the text specified in the Parameter 1 column.

Append

Names will be appended with the string specified in the Parameter 1 column.

Prepend

The name will be prepended with the string specified in the Parameter 1 column.

Generate Name

The name will be replaced by the text specified in the Parameter 1 column, followed by the number set with Parameter 2. The number will be increased by 1 for every found element.

Replace Search String

You can specify a search string under Parameter 1 that is replaced by the text specified in the Parameter 2 column.

Trim

This Action Target is used for automation only and lets you trim the found elements.

Multiply by

Multiplies the Trim value with the value specified in the Parameter 1 column.

Divide by

Divides the Trim value by the value specified in the Parameter 1 column.

Set Color

This lets you set the color for an element. For this Action Target the only operation available is “Set to fixed value”. To use this, insert the name of a track color in the Parameter 1 column, e. g. “Color 7” to use dark green as track color.
