I have a rather long bass track that I want to play one octave up. I want every note to change to one octave up. For smaller chunk of notes I can select many and just drag them but it's not working in zoomed out mode for many many notes. Is there a function that can move many notes for me. I use Cubase and its MIDI editor.

    This is possible depending on the software you're using.

  • @BartArondson Thanks. I use Cubase and its MIDI editor. It works to move smaller chunks of notes but when there is a large chunk that I must zoom out on I can't move the large chunk upwards in the Cubase MIDI editor. Can I select them all and do + or likewise on the entire note block?

    Not sure about Cubase but in the Piano roll editor on Logic you can select all and drag the notes up or down.

Cubase (C4 on my PC) allows you to insert a track fx for midi tracks that lets you globally raise all notes up or down as many semitones as you want: -

I've got acoustic piano track fx, transpose feature circled. Maybe this will let you do what you need.

If you only need to apply this to a section of the track you can set up a control track where you only apply transpose in certain areas.
