Ever jam along to a song and nail the perfect run before hitting record? With retrospective MIDI recording, Pro Tools goes into “listen” mode even when you’re not recording, so you can retroactively drop those inspired improvisations into a track post performance, without missing a beat.
Take deeper control of your MIDI
Making music has never been easier. With numerous MIDI improvements and enhancements, you can fix and finesse every note to perfection—from transposing and trimming notes with the arrow keys, to building chords and scores faster than ever before.
Create music more easily with tons of MIDI improvements
- Transpose notes by pitch, octave, or only within the song’s key using the arrow and modifier keys
- Duplicate and transpose notes at the same time to build chords easily
- Trim notes and edit velocities quickly using the arrow and modifier keys
- Easily build scores by extracting chords from MIDI clips with a single command, which displays chord progressions in the Chords ruler, eliminating the need to manually enter chords in the Score Editor
- Quickly tab through MIDI notes—moving to the beginning and end of each note—enabling more efficient precision editing
- And much more
Get a better view of your mix
With new EQ curve graphs on all Mix window channel strips, you can see how your settings and automation are impacting each track in real time—even those with multiple EQs (supported plug-ins only). In addition, pre-fader sends and Automation lane view menu entries are now color-coded, making them easier to distinguish.
