| Summary | 0007182: To limit or switch off sound, when few MIDI notes are selected | ||||
| Description | Ardour has a useful possibility to sound selected MIDI notes. This mode can be activated here: Preferences>MIDI>MIDI Preferences> "Sound MIDI notes as they are selected in the editor". This mode works fine with single notes, but when we select several notes - they sound together (volume level summary!). If, for example, we have about 20 notes in a region and press Ctrl+A (to select all of them) - it produces an impermissible level of sound. The proposal is: -to make a level limitation for several notes sounding; -or to switch off the sounding of the selected group of notes at all; -or to sound the first note of the selected note group. | ||||

One extra thought: -to sound the note which we pick during dragging the group. |

This was addressed in Ardour 6.3 (August 2020)
Special case MIDI note selection auditioning - 0008358
This adds a few exceptions to the general preference
"Sound MIDI notes as they are being selected in the editor".
* Select all no longer plays _all_ notes.
* Remain silent when selection is inverted or a range is selected
* Play no sound when a saved selection is restored on session load.

A "level limitation for several notes sounding" would have to happen by the synth. unconditionally adding a Limiter is not an option either. "or to sound the first note of the selected note group." This seems wrong when selecting chords. |

I intend to put a 12 note limit in place. It might not be the 12 notes you intend, but that's life. |
