Re: matrix bug from 7.2 still in Logic 8

also annoying (and maybe related) is that clicking at the background  
of a piano roll I'm
trying to edit, brings up ALL midi notes in ALL sequences at that  
position. while that might
come in handy, when comparing measures etc. it certainly is VERY  
annoying when editing
drumloops and suddenly all the synth notes are all over the place.

Does anybody know how to turn it off, to go back to pre-7.0 behaviour?

It is a feature - and a very useful one - allows you to move quickly  
between MIDI clips - also, when you are working with short clips in a  
large piece, it can be hard to keep track of where you are if you  
want to go back a bit in time from where you are working - hard to do  
if you are just working within one clip.

As far as I know, the feature has always been there - at least from  
version 3. It wasn't in Notator (but here we talk of ancient history).

If you double-click in blank space in the Matrix Edit you bring up  
all MIDI events. By double-clicking on a note, you move to just that  
clip. So, if you single click on a note and it is, say, a bass note  
and you are after drums, just keep poking around. It isn't hard to  
tell them apart - the drums are usually contained to a small number  
of notes quite close together (kick, snare, hihats).
