L10 multi MIDI: Can you transpose notes from multiple clips?

Post by Idonotlikebroccoli » Sun Nov 05, 2017 8:11 am

All the Live 10 videos I've seen only show jumping between clips. I'm interested in editing multiple clips simultaneously.

Let's say I have a bass track and a chord track, and I want to transpose one bar of the progression. Can I select notes from both clips and transpose them in one action?

If not, I hope Max patches load a lot faster, so I can comfortably use Isotonik's editor.

I was testing that in the beta,and it,s not possible at the moment.

Ah, that's the one thing I really needed multi MIDI for.

Since Max patches apparently load fast enough now, it sounds like Isotonik's editor is the way to go for me: https://isotonikstudios.com/product/mid ... ip-editor/

Just got the beta too. Max devices load very fast, so Isotonik's editor is recommended.

Suggestion for the native multi clip editing: I wish we could hold ctrl or alt to make selections apply to both foreground and background clips. That would make it would be perfect for my needs.

I'm still sad that we can't transpose multiple MIDI clips with one action, like we can do with audio clips.
