FR : EDIT MULTIPLE MIDI TRACKS AT THE SAME TIME

[Lutin mutin]

Hi TSC team !

In the future, why not to give us (songwriters and music composers) the capability to edit more than only one midi track at the same time ?
All the composition and notation software (finale, sybellius, notion etc...) have this possibility, editing the notes, chords or a lots of other parameters on different "tracks" at the "same time".
As far as I know, this capability do not exists in any of the actual DAWs...

When you are composing with VSTi, a lot of times, you want that "chords" between 2 tracks (let say for example, one bass track and a melodic track and/or a chords track) sounds together correct (or sounds together "as you are expecting to"...;o). Actually, if there is something wrong between 2 midi tracks, you have to edit each one individually to access alternatively to your 2 midi tracks, and to your midi notes concerned in order to obtain the final result you want. With a lot of "mouse manipulations"... correcting, hearing, changing... going to the other midi track, repeating the different acts... coming back to the precedent track... etc...
So...
Why do not to have the possibility to edit, at minimum, 2 midi tracks at the same time ?
--> You can easily imagine the time saved in the working process...

So, why any software programmers don't do it ? No DAW users need this possibility ? Is this very difficult or time consuming to code in a DAW software program ?

Am I the only songs and musics composer working with midi tracks who will be very interested by this king of function... without to be obliged to work with a notation software in order to have access to this editing facility "function" ? (and the exporting/importing midi files concerned... which are never correct, due to the "other" parameters than notes... as automation, velocity, etc...).

I'm not a marketing manager, but it seems to me that this multiple midi tracks editing capability will also be very usefull for electronic music midi clips composers...

Thanks in advance,

+1 for this FR and overall I think Tracktion could do with better midi editing/previewing capabilities (see other similar FRs in this forum).

Note that Bitwig already has this (as I believe do other DAWs):

… it's a dream!
