Filter event types in the Logic Pro for Mac Event List
When viewing events in a selected MIDI region, you can use the event type buttons to filter what is shown. These buttons show or hide specific event types from the list below, thus limiting the view to events that you want to edit.
As a practical example of where these event type buttons could be used: Imagine a drum part that you have recorded. You have found that every High Tom note event (D2) shares a frequency with another instrument track, and is lost in the mix. Filter the view so that only note events are visible, select one of the High Tom events, then use the Select Equal Regions/Events key command, default assignment: Shift-E. All note events with a value of D2 are selected, allowing you to simultaneously change them to the Mid Tom sound (B1), for example.
Important: All selection and editing functions performed in the Event List only affect the displayed events, protecting any invisible events from changes you may make.
