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 data 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 Region Proper-
ties

button in the Real-Time Properties window

(see “Writing Real-Time Properties to Tracks or
Regions” on page 609).

For greater flexibility, when Real-Time Proper-
ties are assigned on a track basis they are actu-
ally contained in a track playlist. This lets you
create multiple playlists containing different
Real-Time Property settings.
