I want to create a strum function in logical editor instead of having to do it manually. This is how I want it to work. After I manually select a group of notes , when the command is run I want the second note from the bottom up to the last note to be shifted by +32nd note from the previous note . Is it possible? if so can someone help me create it.

 

I am not sure if you mean "guitar strumming" or "inverse arpeggio", lets say you mean "guitar strumming"

I do it this way:
-disable the quantize snap with J key
-switch to TRIM tool
-hold ALT key and cut the quantized chord "freely", from bottom note or vice versa as you need
-if you want exactely 1/32 note dont disable the quantize but put at 32


I will think how to do it in PLE, but I dont think it would be more convenient, because you will have the problem of the "number of notes selected" to solve, which is easily done with the TRIM tool

 

well

well i know of this way but its not so effective for me. Thats why I would like to do it at a shortcut command if possible

 

oh thanks for your help

-----------------------------------------------------
here's a mix of macro and PLE

-you have to build a custom LE preset for +32nd notes shifting, you see it in the screenshot, make it and save it
-then in a MACRO alternate that LE custom preset with "DESELECT NOTE in CHORDS", which is a PLE preset you alredy have in Cubase
-repeat the command lines for the number of notes in the CHORDS you are editing

NOTE: the example I made its working only for 4 NOTES CHORDS, as I stated above, you will have to make a different MACRO for every situations, because of the selecting problem
ex. 3 commands lines>3 notes chords, 4 commands lines>4 notes chords, 5 commands lines>5 notes chords and so on

to use this macro you have to start selecting the 4 notes of the chord, then it will do the job, there's also another thing to take care: it will select the melody note of somethin following, but you can solve this for yourself I think

okay great, i'm guessing it should work if notes are less than 4?

 

yeah as stated, 3 notes>3 lines.....and so on

 

okay then thats good enough thanks. i'll just make a 7 notes version cos i doubt i make 7 note chords
