Cakewalk SONAR: Event Inspector Editing

The Event Inspector is a special editing feature in Cakewalk SONAR, which allows you to edit the start time, duration, pitch, velocity, and channel of selected events in a project. It also works as a data indicator for single selected events by displaying their current start time, duration, pitch, velocity, and channel values. In addition, it can help with arranging entire data clips in the Track view.

• The Time parameter represents the Start Time of selected events.
• Time is represented in measures, beats and ticks... M:B:T but enter as M.B.T
• Use +/- modifiers to add/subtract time to/from the current start time (or +/- M.B.T)
• The default ticks-per-quarter note setting in Sonar is 960 (i.e. Whole = 3840; Half = 1920; Eighth = 480; sixteenth = 240)
• The Event Inspector works in the PRV (piano roll view), Event, Staff, Track (inline PRV) views

• The Duration parameter in the Event Inspector is represented by ticks
• You can scale the length of notes by entering a percentage for Duration.  100% represents the current duration value of selected notes.

• Use +/- with the Pitch parameter to transpose notes by semitones (e.g. +12 is up an octave).
