tracks. Then, use the "Erase Measure" UTILITY to erase Bars 1-2 from
Track 2, Bars 1-4 from Track 3, and Bars 1-6 from Track 4.
Parameter Guide, Page 98. This is better than method 1 in that it
releases polyphony when the tracks aren't playing.
28. Is it possible to slice out part of a measure (i.e. from time 1.00
through 1.113)? Or if not, to delete events through part of a
measure and then have the sequence shifted back or forward to
start a measure from the first occurring note?
You can use the (5.2-1b) "Quantize" Track Edit UTILITY to shift tracks
without quantizing the data if desired. Not as intuitive as it might be, but
here's how to do it:
Say that you wanted to shift all the data in a track forward by 20 ticks.
In the Quantize Dialog, you would specify Start Measure 1, End Measure
999 (therefore selecting the whole track). Then, leave Resolution set to
"Hi". This means that the data will be corrected to the nearest division of
192, and since the resolution of the sequencer is 192, no correction will
take place in actuality.
Then, set Offset to the number of ticks you want to shift. In this
example, -20. Set Intensity to 100% (because we want to move the full
20 ticks. If you set it to 50, we would move -10 ticks). Execute the
command, and your data will be shifted by the specified amount, without
quantizing or altering the feel.
Some info about Quantize can be found at (5.2-1b)
Page 101 (note that the picture of the Quantize dialog is wrong).
So to answer your question more directly, you would need to erase the
part of the measure you don't want. The easiest way to accomplish this
for just a small portion of a single measure would be to use the Event
Edit UTILITY. Enter Event Edit, and delete one by one the events in the
part of the measure from 1.00 to 1.113. Then, assuming you wanted to
move the rest of the measure to start at 1.00, you would need to shift the
data forward by 113 ticks, as described above.
29. How do I shift a whole track forward or backwards?
Use the (5.2-1b) "Quantize" Track Edit UTILITY, which can also be used
to shift tracks without quantizing the data. Please see the answer to the
previous question.
