Lengthening EVERY NOTE in a clip?

If I have a piece already, and is it then possible to not alter the piece but just edit(lenghten) all the midi notes so that it's easier for musicians to look at the score?
(I want to keep the tempo at this current one too.. so a way to just edit the notes to make all clips longer without changing how it sounds?)

He doesn't want to change the actual length of the notes, just the displayed/printed length in SV. If the resolution is too high the score can be difficult to read.

Is the problem that your score has a lot of 32nd, 64th, etc. notes, and you would like to read them as 8ths, quarters, etc?

If so, what you need to do is:

Select the notes
PROCESS | LENGTH | 200% (to double the length of the notes -- make sure START TIME and DURATION are both checked)
Then change the tempo to double its current value.


OR, is the problem that you have a lot of short (staccato) notes, but they are showing up as small note values followed by rests (for example, a staccato 8th note shows up as a 16th + 16th rests)?

If so, you need to experiment with the "Fill Durations" "Trim Durations" and "Display Resolution" buttons in Staff View until the music looks similar to what you want.

I'm not at my SONAR now, but isn't there the magnifying glass or something on the right hand side under the piano roll? That makes the piano roll and "midi-notes" longer.

The OP is talking about "lengthening MIDI-notes" and "lengthening clips" to improve the visibility, which I understand means piano roll. You can make regular music notes bigger, but there's no way to make them longer (= easier to see). He's not talking about sheet-music I think.

I mean the ability to zoom the whole piano roll horizontally or vertically, not a magnified box.

Hi.

...easier for musicians to look at the score?

Given the above I suspect the OP is talking about the staff view (where is the OP anyway?), not the PRV. I think Susan G has hit the proverbial nail...
