Enter triplet values in piano roll... and volume question

How can I get the piano roll grid view to temporarily change to subdivisions of 3 per per beat (instead of 4) in a 4/4 piece so I can align triplets?
Also, how do I change the volume of a single note in the piano roll editor?
TIA

1. In the transport bar, where you see the time signature (default 4/4), just below that is the beat subdivision. You can click on it and drag up or down to change the value. A value of 12 will subdivide a beat into thirds.
2. You can't really change the volume of a note, per se, since volume is a MIDI parameter that doesn't apply to single notes, but rather as continuous data. You can, however, change the velocity of notes, which will affect the volume of the note if the note's velocity is programmed for volume change. To do this, choose the Velocity tool (escape, then 9) and click the note and drag up or down.

  • Why are midi notes in piano roll lower volume when selected with pointer than when in playback?

    I'm using Logic X on mac mini. When I select midi notes in piano roll with the pointer, they are at a  lower volume than when in playback? I use Logic X on mac mini with Apogee Duet.

    Thanks for your help Erik.  I found the answer you posted about 30 minutes after posting my question.  To me it doesn't answer my question 100%.  The reason is that I can't expect to believe that every time someone records midi they have to go through all these extra steps to merge it (and it is not easy to do because they are hidden behind one another) in fact my problem was so unique that other logic users didn't understand why I am having this trouble.  SO that brings me to my conclusion, that I have some setting that is keeping this from being a seamless operation and transforming it into a bunch of hoop jumps.  Thoughts?  Could it have to do with record settings of "merge"? I saw a few  different settings there but none make sense to me.
    thanks again.

  • Why do the piano roll and event editor act differently?

    In Logic Studio 9, this wasn't the case, but there are numerous examples now where editing MIDI in the event view acts right, and editing the same MIDI content in the piano roll acts wrong.  It's extremely frustrating!  Personally, I think who ever modified the behavior of the Piano Roll in Logic 10 should be fired on the spot.  I'd downgrade to 9 in a heartbeat if it was still available in the App Store.
    Two examples off the top of my head:
    - Selecting a MIDI note in the event viewer selects ONLY the note and not all the MIDI objects that fall within the time span of that note. This is not the case in the piano roll as it assumes that when you select a note, you want *more* than just the note you're clicking on. This is a stupid assumption and is new in 10.
    - Dragging midi notes in the piano roll randomly deletes all non-note events and changes the action from "move" to "copy" where the only workaround when the piano roll gets stuck in this state is to do the same action in the event viewer. 
    Please rollback changes made to the piano roll in 10 back to what 9 was as I've wasted countless hours of my life trying to work around these flubs!

    Try making a blank project with no settings at all and just add a bass from whatever plugin. Make sure there are no plugins at all on the track (not just muted but removed). Then try again.
    I believe palying on the pianoroll with the mouse plays at 127 velocity but I ain´t sure. How about the output? Does it clip/go red? Then it will disort.

  • Notes disappear in Piano Roll and Hyper editor

    When recording with either the piano roll editor or the hyper editor windows open the notes disappear and then reappear when recording is stopped....does anyone know how to turn this off? so annoying. thanks.

  • Is there a way to preserve interactivity within a table so that users of an iBook can enter new values in selected cells and have formulas recalculated with that input?

    I would like to include interactive tables that would recalculate using formulas I have written and values that the reader/user has entered into selected cells. The tables I've made in iBooks Author do contain formulas that work as expected...until exported to an iPad, then they look and act just like a static table. I am not looking for serious number crunching or high-end mathematics, although others might find great value in such capability.
    To work without a reader/user accidentally (or otherwise) altering formulas or formatting it would be necessary to lock some or most cells of the table. At present all cells are locked after export. Apple doesn't seem to envision or value the functionality of such a feature; it appears to me missing from Numbers as well.

    Should be near trivial to execute on with an app...
    As welll, I wouldn't be surprised if a dashcode widget would fit the bill.
    As always, feel free to use the 'Provide iBooks Author Feedback' menu item for features you'd like added in the future, etc.

  • Nano 4G - Sleep function and volume question

    Hey all,
    i'm owning my first ipod right now and i'm kinda disappointed...mainly concerning two things..I hope someone more experienced with a ipod can assist me...
    1. problem: sleep function @ ipod 4G..is there one? i didn't find anything to auto-shut-off the decive after eg. XX minutes...
    2. problem: volume: even when I decrease the volume to the minimum, it's still too loud..I would like the volume to be lower to listen eg. to the ipod when falling asleep..is a bigger decrease of the volume possible?
    best rgds,
    max

    to clarify it: i mean a SLEEP TIMER, the function which should switch off the ipod after a specified time period...it's impossible that the ipod 4g doensn't offer that STANDARD feature...

  • I'm using photoshop elements 2.0 and window vista.  when i want to crop i cannot enter any values in

    I'm using photoshop elements 2.0 and window vista.  when i want to crop i cannot enter any values in the width and height boxes.  the cursor won't enter.  same thing with resolution.  what did i do?  what's wrong?

    The first thing you might try is resetting the Crop Tool by right clicking on the crop icon in the tool options bar and choosing Reset Tool.
    If that doesn't work then the next thing is to reset the photoshop elements 2 settings file by holding down
    the Shift+Ctrl+Alt keys just after clicking or double clicking on the pse 2 shortcut.
    Keep holding the keys until a dialog appears ask if you want to delete the photoshop elements settings file
    and click yes in the dialog.

  • Why does Photoshop CC Randomly fill leading and tracking after entering a value?

    I've been running into a bug where entering a value into the leading and/or tracking fields in the Character panel generates random numbers. The major problem has come when I'm building banners at large sizes. I enter a value and suddenly I get a min/max warning that I've clearly gone over the maximum value allowed by Photoshop in that field. I press "OK" and another random value is inserted into the field rather than the allowable maximum value, which the warning box promised me it would enter in the field. This generally continues until I force quit Photoshop CC and restart it...hopefully not loosing too much work in the process.
    (I've been burned too many times by Photoshop bugs and issues to know that I should save very frequently...to my desktop.)

    It happens when you have transformed text.
    It's a widely discussed bug, that we've acknowledged and are testing a fix for.

  • How can we prevent a user from entering a value in Parameter Field?

    how can we prevent a user from entering a value in Parameter Field and Select-options Field?

    make it invisible, make it inactive, make it display only.
    if the field is not there or not to be seen the user WILL have problems inputting data.
    BUT once the field is there you can NOT prevent that the user fills it with data.
    all you can do is on PAI check if the data the user inputted was good or bad, and clear his inputs, but you can NOT prevent him inputting something.

  • How to get pop-up for entering some value on it by user on Adobe INTERACTIV

    Hello
    We are developing a interactive adobe form,
    1) User would like get some popups for entering the values in the popup and clicking either OK or CONTINUE, pls. let me know how to handle this?
    2) can i get CALENDER, when user tries to input DATE entry? how its?

    Hi,
    You can create a subform overlapping you main body page and you can use this subform as pop-up.
    You just need to do following things:
    1. Create a subform over you main body page in the area where you want to show the pop-up, say SF_POPUP is the name of this subform.
    2. Give it a background colour(So that it looks different from the main page).
    3. On this subform SF_POPUP, create the fields you want the user to enter. along with these fields create a button 'OK' or 'Continue' as per your requirement.
    4. Write the below code on click event of this button:
        SF_POPUP.presence = "Hidden".
    5. On you main body area create a button to show this popup and write the below code on it:
       SF_POPUP.presence = "Visible".
    6. By default set this popup SF_POPUP as hidden from subform properties.
    Hope this will help for your first requirement, for your second requirement Arvind has already given a solution.

  • 8.0.1 has broken Content Link in Piano Roll Editor

    Logic 8.0.1 has managed to break Content Link in Piano Roll Editor... Select a MIDI region in Arrange, choose a Screenset for Piano Roll and, with Link active, you'll see the contents for the selected MIDI region. From that point on though, you'll only ever see the contents of that first selection, no matter what other MIDI region is selected. Logic can be forced to reveal the contents of another MIDI region by double-clicking or Option-double-clicking but it's hardly ideal; not when your workflow for the past ten years has been screenset based.
    That bug alone is enough for me to go straight back to 8.0
    Nice one Apple.

    Sorry Captain - you're quite right. When changing screensets, the link is lost.
    In Logic 7 the default behaviour is what you want - screensets follow the selected region. This does appear to be broken in 8.0.1
    Perhaps some people would prefer this - so that you could have screensets that have Show Contents link mode on for different regions, for example. The best solution would be to have a Preference where one could choose the option one prefers.

  • Is it possible to capture VST's arpeggiator as Piano Roll?

    Hello,
    I would like to know if it's possible to record/capture a VST's arpeggiator as a Piano Roll, for example, Native Instruments FM8 or Rob Papen Predator arpeggiators, I can only record it to the piano roll window by using 'one-hit' note and the output will record it, but, ofcourse its not the actual 'Arpeggiated Piano Roll',,
    To help you illustrate what I need , a Youtube video shows using Catanya VST with CuBase and Ableton Live, hitting record was able to capture that Piano Roll, and that helps it to be manipulated later on
    CuBase: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iP68d4DwlBQ
    Ableton Live: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8BUjGEpWgg
    I wish there was a Logic compatible Catanya :S
    Thanks in advance for any guidance

    Yes in Cubase some Software Instruments have an option to output Midi to the host. Keep in mind this requires a Host DAW feature to create a Midi Input virtual Port ! I.e imagine when enable the "Midi Out" in the Software Instrument plugin Logic must create a new midi port/pin in the Physical Input in Click & Ports. As far as I remember this was possible during L6 or L7 with Audiorealism Bassline working this way but currently when try to do with it in Logic Studio 8/9 no virtual port is created in the Physical Input. So my answer it is not possible currently in Logic.
    Somebody here offered to use Logic arpeggiator object - yes but you want features such as the Rob Papen Predator etc. I love the Rob's idea so if I have time I think I can construct such "Advance Logic Arpeggiator" as a Logic Macro tool which will use the standard Logic arpeggiator object as engine but I will embed step sequencer, hold/latch, ties etc.

  • Disable jTable so that user cant enter any value & is stopped to do so

    Hi
    my program has 2 options for user: 1. To enter a list of values(for which im using table), 2. To use default values embedded in the program.
    for these options i have used jRadioButtons n ButtonGroup.When user selects DefaultValues radiobutton program uses default values,but when it selects DefaultValues radiobutton i want to disable the Table such that the user cannot enter any value in the cell and it should be visible to the user too that the table has been disabled.
    The user should only b able to enter values in table if he/she selects the first option's radiobutton.
    note: im using DefaultTableModel, if somebody can tell me any way other than using isCellEditable(),it would be more appreciatable
    thanks

  • Why are my samples disappearing in the piano roll?

    Hey guys,
    I have been using a J Dilla and Lex Luger drum kit in the ESX24 sampler and I recorded a beat using them, some software instruments, and audio. Everything works fine for a while and then all of the sudden the notes from the green software instrument bar disappear and I can't hear any of the things I recorded with my downloaded drum kits. I checked in the piano roll, and nothing is there. All of my other software instruments that weren't from an imported sample worked fine.
    The first time this happened, I was able to just close the project and open it up again because I didn't add anything new. Everything was there when I reopened it. But it happened a second time, and I want to see if there is a way to get my samples back without having to lose all of my progress. Any Ideas?

    ... but the "notes" in the software instrument tracks that contain instruments that I downloaded from the internet have disappeared and won't play back. The green region stays there but the notes have disappeared.
    The Track (containing the Regions) and the Channel Strip (containing the Software Instrument Track) are two different objects and you can assign (reassign) a Track to any Channel Strip. That's why it is strange that the choice of Instrument (Channel Strip) affects the Regions (Track).
    Just to make sure:
    You create a Software Instrument Track (A)
    You load the EXS24 on that Channel Strip (assigned to that Track A) and load one of those drum kits you got from the internet
    You can play that drum kit on the EXS24 with your external MIDI controller when you selected that Track A.
    When you record those MIDI notes, you see a new Green MIDI Region is created on the Track Lane of Track A
    When you select that MIDI Region and open the Piano Roll (or the Event List), you don't see any MIDI notes.
    That would mean, the MIDI Region was created but no MIDI Notes were created
    Is that what happened?

    SQLSTATE: 28000
