Is it possible to select region/event by color?

Does this exist?

For example, if I want to chop up a drum break and have the kick be blue, and the snare red, but have both regions on the same track, is it then possible later on to select one kick and choose to select all blue (kick) regions on the same track?

Or is there something similar? Would be really helpful!

Thanks!

Hi,

Unfortunately, this doesn’t exist. But you could select it by name.

Thanks for the reply Martin. Could you please elaborate on this? I searched through the key commands and various menus and was unable to find anything related to ‘select by name’.

Here is an image of a drumloop, by bouncing the snare down I was able to rename that particular event as ‘snare’ and still have ‘kick’ in the same track, but I couldn’t figure out how to select all of one type.

Do I need to setup a macro? Is there a selection option I am missing? Cheers!

Hi,

Be aware, the Project Logical Editor, which JHP sent, will select even the track, if it’s named (or the name contains) “Snare”.

If you want to select only Audio Events and Parts, make the Project Logical Editor condition more precise:
( Container Type is | Equal | Part | Or
Container Type is | Equal | Event | And
Name | Contains | Snare )
