Convert Drummer regions to MIDI or pattern regions in Logic Pro for Mac

You edit Drummer regions, but not specific notes, in the Drummer Editor. To edit specific notes, you need to use the Piano Roll Editor, the Event List, the Step Editor, or Step Sequencer. Before you can do so, you must first convert your Drummer regions to MIDI regions or pattern regions. Once you’ve converted them, they no longer interact with Drum Kit Designer and Drum Machine Designer as Drummer regions.

After converting a Drummer region to a MIDI or pattern region, you can convert it back to a Drummer region at any time. However, any edits you’ve made to the region will be lost.

Note: You can edit Drummer regions in the Tracks area in much the same way that you would edit MIDI regions, with the exception of region overlapping. When overlapping, Drummer regions always use the No Overlap drag mode.

Convert a Drummer region to a regular MIDI region

  • In Logic Pro, Control-click the Drummer region, then choose Convert > Convert to MIDI Region from the shortcut menu.

The resulting MIDI region behaves the same way as any other MIDI region, and you can edit it in the Piano Roll Editor, Event List, or Step Editor.

Convert a Drummer region to a pattern region

If the Drummer region is four bars or fewer in length, you can convert it to a pattern region and edit it in Step Sequencer.

  • In Logic Pro, Control-click the Drummer region, then choose Convert > Convert to Pattern Region from the shortcut menu.

The resulting pattern region behaves the same way as any other pattern region, and you can edit it in Step Sequencer.

Convert a regular MIDI or pattern region back into a Drummer region

  • In Logic Pro, Control-click the MIDI region, then choose Convert > Convert to Drummer Region from the shortcut menu.

The resulting Drummer region does not contain any MIDI edits you may have made.
