Cakewalk CAL Template Changes MIDI Note Numbers
By Tony Decap

Hi,  In response to Craig Smith's request for help I include an empty
CAL template that can be easily adapted to change any one scale to an
other.  Some explanation is included.  If needed, I can provide any CAL
program.

As CAL is limited, not all edits imaginable are possible.  That's why
I am now working on MIDI-FX, a feature in Cakewalk (that is supposed
to work on other music programs if supported) that has many more
possibilities, including non-destructive (real-time) editing.  This
means that the MIDI track is processed in real-time before output,
so that you can hear the result without changing the actual track.
Changing the actual track can then be done at any time by pressing
a button.

This is, for example, very handy if you want to work in real-time on
an organ that has a drum set.  These notes must be forwarded in time.
So you can put them on the exact musical spot, and the MIDI-FX will
offset the timing for you in real time.

Best regards,

Tony Decap

 [ Thanks, Tony.  I'll place the CAL program at the MMD Tech Site,
