Score

This parameter is accessed via the Arrange window’s Region Parameter box (only
visible if the View > Extended Region Parameters setting is enabled). If Score is set to
Off here, the MIDI region will not be displayed in the score at all. This is mainly used to
prevent the score display of particular regions—namely those that only contain MIDI
events which can’t be displayed in the score, such as controller or SysEx data.

Hidden MIDI Regions

In some situations, certain MIDI regions will not be displayed in the Score Editor.

 Muted MIDI regions, if Hide Muted Regions is enabled in the Global tab of the Score

project settings.

 MIDI regions on muted tracks, if Hide Muted Tracks is activated in the Global tab of

the Score project settings.

 MIDI regions with a Score parameter set to “off” in the extended region parameters.

Using Note Attributes to Change Individual Notes

You can use note attributes to set individual display parameters for each note,
regardless of the settings in other windows and boxes.

You can set the following note attributes:

 Form of the note head, and note size.
 Horizontal position.
 Change of accidental distance.
 Enharmonic changes.
 Settings for interpretation and syncopation, independent of the settings in the

Display Parameter box.

 Stem direction, tie direction, and beaming, independent of the settings in the staff

style being used.

 Display as an independent note, which excludes the note from the measure’s overall

rhythmic calculation.

You can change note attributes in the Note Attributes window, via the Attributes menu,
or the respective key commands.

Note: Please ensure that the Note Attributes setting is chosen in the “Double-click note
to open” menu of the Logic Express > Preferences > Score window. It is on by default.
