How do you Select All in Helium on iPad?

Johne1

4Pockets site is down for server updates and I’ve watched numerous Helium Tutorials on YT, but not one tells or shows how to Select All Midi notes in a track. Even Google can’t find the answer, so I have tried to find this simple newbie task on my own, to no avail. 🧐

Just click once on the Select button.

I saw all the arrows pop up on the right when I did that but didn’t realize I had selected all. Thank you!

@Pxlhg Thanks for that help. I ended up doing all I needed to do using Helium in stand-alone mode.

It worked better for me in stand-alone mode than in AUM. I was having issues getting both apps in sync, despite using the Sync button in Helium. The tempo of the original data was being changed.
In stand-alone mode, I set the tempo manually and all was good.

I was really impressed with the way Helium can handle MIDI data and MIDI files. The only mystery I encountered was in the Media Bay. I created a folder to hold the MIDI files I was working on and saved them in that folder. But for the life of me, I could not find that folder “In My iPad” or in iCloud. I’m guessing Helium created it as a Hidden file type. To get around that, I exported the tracks out of Media Bay into a folder I could see in the iPad Files app.

The most impressive part was how I was able to figure it out, with minimal trial and experimenting, just how to import MIDI data, create tracks in Helium, and export them to Clips. When played they matched the source exactly. I experimented enough to confirm that Clips are just individual Midi tracks and Songs can contain multi-MIDI tracks in a single .mid file.

What an impressive app and I’ve barely scratched the surface of it’s features and functions!!
From what I’ve seen and been reading, Helium is way more than just a MIDI Sequencer.
I got it just to help someone else out. Now I’m really happy that I added it to my toolkit.
