Locked MIDI notes not allowing selection

[Jimi]

Hi - hope someone can help with an odd and frustrating new problem...

I have some notes in the MIDI editor that can only be highlighted with the 'plus' symbol but otherwise cannot be manipulated by any normal means:
• the cursor will not turn into the 'hand' symbol when I try to drag the note to change its duration
• the note cannot be dragged either up, down, left or right.

The only thing I can do is highlight the note and change whatever parameter is open at the bottom of the MIDI editor (e.g. On Velocity, Articulation, etc.)

The following hasn't helped: toggling grid on/off, trying it in the Sequence Editor, press the A key to change to cursor, using the Tool Palette, re-performing the part, restarting DP, restarting entire machine.

Other non-performed MIDI notes work fine (both pencilled-in and imported MIDI) and this problem has only started occurring today for notes I have played in using my MIDI controller, which was working just fine yesterday.

Any ideas please, DP wizards?

[Mac OS Catalina 10.15.7, 16GB RAM, DP 11.3, Apollo twin, Jamstik 24 MIDI guitar alongside Tec2 breath controller to track parts]

EDIT: #$&@ knows why but it's just started randomly working. Gonna be one of those days....

A re-boot will often work miracles.

Same thing happening here, same OS. I've got the crosshair cursor and can't get arrow/hand back. This has persisted across a reboot and restart. I'm noticing I get the arrow (and select/move etc) if I hover over the beginning of the note, and can also get the adjust start cursor, but get crosshair everywhere else and can't adjust end.

Please set up your signature so we know what system you are running, etc.

I'm also experiencing this problem using the latest version of DP on Windows. Since I'm a fairly new DP user, I figured I was doing something wrong and searched the forum for advice, but found this thread instead.

For anyone still having problems with this all you need to do is set all notes to the same MIDI channel, eg MIDI channel 1 and problem solved.

Thanks for that Jimi

I reported that and it was fixed in 11.04 I think.

This is very interesting.
I was wondering how can I get to this situation i.e. locking MIDI notes.
I find it useful when editing MIDI notes while having more than one strip available at the MIDI tab.
Editing a MIDI strip, while viewing the notes from other strips and without worrying of altering/deleting the other notes...
