Selecting a function
The pop-up menu at the bottom of the Logical Editor is where you select the function, that is, the basic type of editing to be performed.
Below, the available options are listed.
Some options are not available in the Transformer effect.
- Delete
Deletes all elements found by the Logical Editor. In the case of the Transformer, this function will remove or mute all found elements from the output stream. The actual elements on the track are not affected.
- Transform
Changes one or several aspects of the found elements. You set up exactly what is changed in the action list.
- Insert
Creates new elements and inserts these into the parts (Logical Editor) or the output stream (Transformer). The new elements will be based on the elements found by the filter conditions, but with any changes you have set up in the action list applied.
Another way of expressing this is that the Insert function copies the found elements, transforms them according to the action list and inserts the transformed copies among the existing elements.
- Insert Exclusive
Transforms the found elements according to the action list. All elements that do not meet the filter conditions are deleted (Logical Editor) or removed from the output stream (Transformer).
- Copy (Logical Editor only)
Copies all found elements, transforms them according to the action list and pastes them into a new part on a new MIDI track. The original events are not affected.
- Extract (Logical Editor only)
Transforms all found events and moves them to a new part on a new MIDI track.
- Select (Logical Editor only)
Selects all found events and highlights them for further work in the regular MIDI editors.
