Sharing this YouTube video by Evan Goldman.


Digital Performer has some really terrific - albeit hidden - features for customizing which CCs you frequently work with and then quickly switching between them while working in MIDI Editor/Piano Roll. In this video I explore how you can DRAMATICALLY speed up your workflow by enabling those customizations and then applying them while programming your cues.

***ONE OTHER THING NOT COVERED IN THE VIDEO THAT'S PRETTY COOL:

You can CUSTOMIZE THE COLOR OF EACH CC by drawing a bit of cc automation, then selecting, then going to VIEW - COLORS - SET CONTINUOUS DATA COLOR.....(this can also be set to a key command)

00:00 - INTRO
00:31 - CUSTOMIZE UP TO 7 CC LANES IN PREFERENCES
02:15 - QUICKLY SWITCHING YOUR CC'S IN MIDI EDITOR
03:46 - QUICKLY SWITCH BETWEEN "SUPERIMPOSED" or "SHOW ONLY ACTIVE EDIT TYPE" VIEWS

This is great, thank you. Now they just need to have a similar kind of shortcut for On Velocity and Articulation as this is currently unavailable unfortunately.
