Transpose
Transpose lets you transpose MIDI notes up or
down by a specified number of octaves and
semitones. You can also transpose to a specified
pitch. Select By or To from the Transpose pop-
up menu to transpose by and interval or to a
specific pitch. To transpose by an interval, enter
the desired number of octaves and semitones as
a positive or negative numbers. To transpose to
a specific pitch, enter the desired MIDI note.
Transpose can be applied as a Real-Time Prop-
erty to MIDI Input and Thru.
Real-Time Properties On Tracks
and Regions
Real-Time Properties can be configured to apply
to an entire track (all regions on that track), or
on a region-by-region basis. Track-level proper-
ties also provide real-time MIDI input process-
ing of velocity and transposition.
The presence of track-based Real-Time Proper-
ties are indicated by a "T" displayed in the upper
right-hand corner of MIDI regions. Region-
based Real-Time Properties are indicated by an
"R" displayed in the upper right-hand corner of
the region. Regions boundaries are indicated in
Notes View.

Region-Based Real-Time Properties
Region-based Real-Time Properties can only be
applied using the Real-Time Properties window
(Event > MIDI Real-Time Properties). Real-Time
Properties can be applied to multiple regions.
Once Real-Time Properties have been assigned
to a region, the region can be moved or copied
and pasted and retain its Real-Time Properties.
Track-Based Real-Time Properties
All track-based Real-Time Properties consis-
tently apply to MIDI sequences throughout the
entire track. However, regions with region-
based Real-Time Properties will take precedence
over any track-based Real-Time Properties. You
can clear region-based Real-Time Properties by
selecting the region and clicking the Clear Re-
gion Properties button in the Real-Time Proper-
ties window (see "Writing Real-Time Properties
to Tracks or Regions" on page 510).
To allow greater flexibility when using Real-
Time Properties, whenever Real-Time Properties
are assigned on a track basis they are actually
contained in a track playlist. This lets you create
multiple playlists containing different Real-
Time Property settings.
Writing Real-Time Properties to
Tracks or Regions
Once you have found the desired settings, you
can write Real-Time Properties to the selected
tracks or regions using the Real-Time Properties
window. Real-Time Properties are applied to the
current MIDI data on the track or in a region.
To write Real-Time Properties to tracks:
Select one or more tracks to which you want
