Stay In Sync (Video)

You’re in ProTools and ready to make a mixout so you highlight your regions and press command+D to duplicate — what the — your midi has shifted away from your audio. This happens if you’ve identified a beat and the tempo before/after that section is different. Rather than go put the midi region back into place by hand, just select the tempo ruler along with the regions you’re duplicating. This will make sure your tempo map gets copied as well. Here’s a quick video to demonstrate.

Hey Luiz, I think you’re talking about the MIDI editor, right? You want it to scroll as the edit window scrolls? If that’s the case you just bring up your MIDI editor by pressing control = or going to Window -> Midi Editor.

Then in the MIDI editor there is a button on the far right next to the red target icon which will show a drop-down menu. Inside that menu is a “scrolling” option where you can tell the window to scroll with the timeline.

By the way, if you’re just asking about scrolling the edit window in general, you can find that setting under the Options Menu.
