Inserting Pro Tools MIDI Events

Video Transcript

"Inserting events in the MIDI event list is pretty easy. It's basically just inserting different notes one at a time. You can choose different velocities of panning and durations for that note as well. Make sure that your MIDI event list is open and go to the spot where you want to actually insert a note. If you pick this note I can actually go to "Insert" and set the note. What it will do is give me a note that I can choose and it will choose a point, a starting point for me, the event note as well as the velocity and the panning. Different things, like, as well as the length and the info. With this you can change each of these parts and audition the actual sound of what's going on and what's there. As long as you can, you can also add pitch bends and different things like that. Volume changes, Mono Aftertouchs, panning, program changes and different controllers to your MIDI event list. So you can basically draw in a whole sequence if you wanted to. This definitely helps for drums and things like that. Say you wanted to add a snare every, you know what I'm saying, on the two and the four. If you wanted to add, you know, a high hat every sixteenth beat. Things like that, this is very good for."
