I’ve read several posts about how double MIDI notes gets created, but I haven’t found any efficient way of getting rid of existing double notes (notes on top of each other).
I have some fairly involved MIDI events that turns out to have double notes in many places, causing some sudden “jumps” in volume etc.
Q: Is there any tool or macro that can Remove these duplicates (or Merge them, which is what I do now manually selecting each note, end if it extends I press CTRL-Z… which takes forever)
I have noticed that there’s this MIDI → Function → Delete Doubles, but this function doesn’t remove the dupes (I might be doing something wrong though?).
The Delete Doubles function won’t work if the midi notes are on different channels.
In that case, you could delete them by using the midi list editor and filter by channel.
Wow, that macro will come handy in the next time I mess things up.
In my case all I want is getting rid of the dupes. The channel mess is from a former MIDI channels setup, but now I have all MIDI notes directly on the instrument tracks, so no neeed for the different channels.
Why not Dissolve the part into separate MIDI tracks and delete one of the resultant tracks?
(Page 931 of the manual)
"Dissolving Parts into Separate Channels
You can dissolve MIDI parts that contain events on different MIDI channels, and distribute the
events into new parts on new tracks, one for each MIDI channel found.
PROCEDURE
Select the parts that contain MIDI events on different channels.
Select MIDI > Dissolve Part.
Activate Separate Channels.
Click Process.
RESULT
For each MIDI channel used in the selected parts, a new MIDI track is created and set to
the corresponding MIDI channel. Each event is copied into the part on the track with the
corresponding MIDI channel, and the original parts are muted."
