"Overdub note-off"

Hey, new around here.

I use a "live" like workflow and bounce all my tracks to a long sequence for final track mute automation recording. I like the performance aspect of this workflow.

I want to add some variations to lets say hihats. Is there a way to overdub note off? Not a mute target, but actually record erasing the notes basically. Or, use full Record but only for a certain pad?

The hihats are 1/16T, and I want to punch in some slower stuff, without having to go into the piano roll and manually cut everything out. I'm keeping the workflow as close to live as possible, I find that keeps my juices going.

Thx.

@Lampdog Yeah I tried exploding tracks and then punching Rec + new notes on areas I want to change, but my X starting getting super slow when I did this. Also record went bananas and wasn't even erasing the hihats. Plus it screws up all the mute automation.

I'm all ears for a better way to do this.

One option is to draw it in grid mode or step mode.

Or just hit the erase button and hold down the pads you want to erase.

What i would do is already make these changes in the sequence, before you even convert the song to one big sequence. Copy the sequence where you want changes to a new sequence, make the hihat change, and incorporate this sequence in your song and then convert it to a sequence for your final mute/automation changes.
