Doesn't the MIDI monitor window give what you need? If not I use an app called MIDI Monitor for extended MIDI troubleshooting.ġ. Using the command window with the extended selecting most of this can be done with one or two fingerĩ. The Realtime MIDI Plugs are useful for a lot of stuff (transpose, reassign, velocity curve, etc.)ĥ. Maybe you could define what you describe as a MIDI region?Ĥ. I might not understand properly but I believe # 1, 4, 5, 9 are there?ġ.

For me it is a mystery, why Motu still doesn´t provide that, even PT7 with it´s ridiculous MIDI implentation has that featureģ. I don´t know any other DAW, which doesn´t support MIDI-region editing. it´s so much easier to see what is the musical context in Logic, Cubase, Nuendo, Sonar, Live, Samplitude. no MIDI regions in the SE - it´s so cumbersome to copy MIDI and it´s so confusing to get an overview of the arrangement. Well, maybe MAC's gonna buy out MOTU and then problem solved. I don't want to switch or split between Logic and Performer. I find this hard to believe, but is this true? I've been using Logic since the PC days. Also after running a search for posts including Digital Performer I ran across a comment implying that DP is more MIDI oriented than Logic. how can we expedite the inclusion of such a feature in the next version? I think it is interesting that many solo performers go out and spend hundreds of dollars on loop pedals to build accompaniments to jam with as a "one man band" trick.while Digital Performer doesn't really cost much more and can basically do the same thing. The tracks automatically arm for Recording when an audio input signal exceeds a user definable threshold ! Can Logic do this? If not. without even touching the computer until I am finished playing. In Performer it seems I could pick up several different instruments and construct a full band sound while loop recording. I have done this in Logic but with limitations. kinda like the COMP feature in Logic, but you can actually hear ALL audio on each pass of recording in a loop recording session thus, instantly a full ensemble that can be built from audio (as well as the MIDI drum loop building that many are accustomed to). Those who have used Digital Performer have used this. I'd really like to know if the extra's are worth purchasing / learning a new application. Any related inputs (including other reasons why I might purchase DP even though I already have Logic Studio) would be greatly appreciated. I Posted this earlier on the LOGIC PRO forum.
