Is mass editing possible with MIDI notes?

Here’s the scenario. I’ve got 8 bars of 16th notes in a pedal point arrangement.

I want to harmonize the melodic notes. At this stage, I would like to mute the pedal point notes. I tried selecting all of those notes in a measure and used the Quick Link function to mute them all with the mute tool. But that didn’t work. Only the one note touched by the tool, muted.

I had to individually mute and unmute the 16 notes per measure. Very tedious.

Is there a way to do that function in mass?

Logical Editor:

Position - Inside Cycle

Type is - ‘note’

Context Variable - ‘Lowest Pitch’

Filter Condition - Select

Then……

Edit Menu / Mute (shift+M)

That’s a great solution. :sign_of_the_horns:t2:

Quick Link is for the areas of the mix console and some Inspector settings but not the midi editors.
After selecting the desired notes I use the command “mute object”. You could also click the Mute field in the Info Line.
The suggested Logical Editor settings are also a nice way to go about it.

Use the key command to mute them instead. I can’t remember if I changed the default key but for me it’s Alt + M. Win 11.

That was a very simple way to do it. Thanks a lot!

… or go back to NU12 and use the Project Browser that has been dropped in more recent versions. :frowning:

Or you can build a car. Use the car to drive to a port. Take a ship to South Africa. There hop into a hot air ballon and hope it will bring you to India. There find a guru and hope for enlightment.

That is also a way. But using the mute object command is easier.

Well, then let’s hope they don’t drop that, too, for no apparent reason.

AMEN!!!

I still can’t believe they got rid of the PROJECT BROWSER! That was like amputating an arm or a leg!! :confounded_face: I wasn’t interested in most of the feature updates from 13, on. But when I learned about the removal of the browser, I became a “permanent resident” of N12!:angry::face_with_symbols_on_mouth:
