Transpose MIDI regions in the Tracks area in Logic Pro for iPad

The Transpose parameter in the Region inspector transposes all note events in the selected regions up or down in semitones during playback. Even complete folders can be instantly transposed in this way. If several individual MIDI regions within the folder have already been transposed, the relative differences between them are retained.

To guard against drum notes and so on being transposed, turn on the No Transpose switch in the More category of the Track inspector. When turned on, Logic Pro for iPad ignores the Transpose parameter in all MIDI regions on that track.

Note: The MIDI notes in the Piano Roll Editor are not changed, meaning that the note pitch you see in the Piano Roll Editor doesn’t reflect the note pitch you hear.
