Re: Arrow Keys Causing Transposing in PT 2018.1
Hi Alex, Try changing the midi "instrument" track from "note" to clip. This briefly happened to me yesterday and I believe changing from note view to clip in the midi track cleared it up!

Arrow Keys Causing Transposing in PT 2018.1
LOL. I've done it again. I've inadvertently managed to turn on a PT feature that I didn't even know existed. If I have a MIDI/Instrument track selected for editing and I press the up or down arrow keys on my computer keyboard, my MIDI track is transposed up/down by 1 half-step. Any ideas on why this is happening and how to make it stop? It is really inconvenient to accidently transpose a track when I really am intending to just drop some in/out markers.

Re: transposing
BTW, your other option, although I feel that transposing the keyboard itself is the best, is to use the Audio Suite Pitch plug-in to change the pitch of the original audio, record the MIDI, go back to the original audio and transpose the MIDI notes. The artifacts of the audio transposition will be fairly poor but good enough for reference. Duplicating the playlist at the outset is a must, of course.

Re: transposing
As far as I know, you have to do it within the instrument plugin of your choice. Either that, or do it from the controller itself. My only concern is, if you do the ladder, yeah, audibly it might sound ok, but once you play it back, will it remain transposed?

I'd look into they keyboard's facility for transposition.

Re: transposing
Personally, maybe I'm an extremist, but my advice is don't transpose! That's a crutch! OK, if you need to bang something out really quickly, and it has to be done, like, now? then OK, do it if you absolutely absolutely must, but frankly, you're never going to get better if you don't just try. I, for the longest time cheated and used transpose. Well, that went over real real freaking well when I was asked to play Oh Holy Night at a Christmas candlelight service. Oh, never mind the fact that they wanted me to do it in C Sharp major, then modulate up to D sharp major. Boy was I in for a rude awakening that night, seeing that they had no keyboard. All they had was a true baby grand piano. So, I couldn't cheat, even if I wanted to. And being the church orchestra was playing along with me, it's not like I could a lowered it to C, modulate to D, no one'll notice unless they have perfect pitch. It wasn't that easy. I knew I was doomed! I got through it, but only by the hairs on the back of my scrawny kneck. From that point forward, I made it a huge priority to never, never never ever ever ever! use transpose again, if I at all could help it. Now that I am quite confident in all 12 keys, I feel I could now have gotten through that performance quite easily, which to me is very very rewarding! Just a word of encouragement, I know some keys feel real real awquard. Trust me, oh, baby, don't I know it! But stick with it! Keep practicing, as though it won't come over night, you will! build the muscel memory. I promise you!

Re: transposing

Re: transposing
Agreed. learn to play in some more keys! It'll do you some good! (grin) I was at a blues jam once with supposedly a famous well-known keyboard player sitting in. This guy was on some recordings people might recognize. Anyway, someone calls Every Day I Have the Blues in B-flat. The drummer counts it off and we're in, except whoops, the keyboard player is in C major! The band stops, he says quietly oops I forgot to hit this transpose button, and suddenly he's in B-flat. He had been playing in C all set. Yes I know, to the audience it doesn't matter, and it shouldn't matter to anyone, even us snobby musicians. (grin) But it was just amusing after we'd all been told how big a deal this guy was. Chris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Pro Tools Accessibility group.

Re: transposing
actuallySlau, that’s what i did in the end. and it worked fine, as you say, pretty rough artifacts, but it got the job done. My issue is my midi controller does not have a transpose button, I never worried about this, because in sonar i could do this no problem, just change the key, and what i played in was transposed swell. So looks like a bit of a rethink with p t. maybe a new midi controller is on the cards. Steve On 18 May 2015, at 11:21 pm, Slau Halatyn slauhala...@gmail.com wrote: BTW, your other option, although I feel that transposing the keyboard itself is the best, is to use the Audio Suite Pitch plug-in to change the pitch of the original audio, record the MIDI, go back to the original audio and transpose the MIDI notes. The artifacts of the audio transposition will be fairly poor but good enough for reference. Duplicating the playlist at the outset is a must, of course.
