Showing MIDI Notes Being Played While in MIDI Editor Window?

[ianbee]

When I have my MIDI Editor window open and I mess around and play notes on my MIDI keyboard, the corresponding notes aren't being shown when I press them. Meaning, when I press the C , E and G keys on my keyboard, instead of the MIDI Editor Keyboard showing that the C E & G Keys are being played or pressed, it shows nothing. Is there any way to show which notes are being pressed in the MIDI editor?

Try looking in a manual for once! I have seen a few posts from you since you joined not long ago and almost every question you ask is covered in the manuals that came with either PT or your keystation ES so look there first. Thanx

Sorry for that, I bought an Mbox that came with Pro Tools and when people referenced or said "the manual".. I thought the little tiny booklet that says "intro to pro tools" was the manual. I couldn't really find anything amazingly useful in there. So, I just found out what the actual manual is now. With that being said, I looked through out the manual at all the midi editor window stuff and I can't find anything on the question I'm asking. Sorry if my lack of knowledge has bothered you, my intentions are pure!! Maybe you would know the answer?

edit: Let me explain my question further... When I record notes, the show up fine. But I'm talking about when notes are being pressed or played, the correct notes don't show that there being pressed or played.. So, when I press c5, shouldn't the c5 note in the MIDI editor light up or change color? Hmm...

I guess this feature just isn't available in Pro Tools

I am still currently looking for an answer to this question, I googled it and then this thread came up! lol

I hate to be the bumper, but if anyone know if this feature is possible in PT, please let me know!

Been using it for years as it's a great tool for debugging MIDI problems. And it's free
