DarkDjinn Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I have already searched for the answer to this and can't seem to find it. I am trying to have a default MIDI note length in Logic Pro X. Currently, when I input into the piano roll, it will mimic the last note that I had selected (even if that note is no longer selected). I want to set it to input a quarter note by default, but I can't seem to figure out how to do that. I found topics on how to select the entire thing and use the MIDI Transform function to change all notes to the same length, but that doesn't help. This is super annoying when I input a note that is sustained for a couple of measures, then want to input a shorter note but it automatically puts in another really long note and I have to shorten it. Does anyone know how to do it? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lacifer Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I have the same headache... but my understanding is that it is designed to do what you say.. The note you draw will be the length of the last selected note... I have given up and have my scissors ready on right click... -l Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkDjinn Posted February 25, 2015 Author Share Posted February 25, 2015 Yeah it's so annoying! I thought the "upgrade" from Garageband to Logic would be great, but I dislike that feature greatly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moseph Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Doesn't Logic allow you to resize notes you're drawing on-the-fly by holding the mouse click that creates the note and dragging to the right? In absence of a default note length, that seems like the easiest way to deal with long notes, rather than resizing them after the fact.

I didn't know that . I'll try it out, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
