I'm still not following why you can't do this with articulations. Mass Mover's "Apply Articulation" function has an option that lets you apply only to notes of a certain duration. So you design a separate "staccato" articulation for each note value, with different percentage in the duration box so that the resultant value is always the same -- say, 25% for half note, 50% for eighth, 33% for dotted eighth, etc. Then you run apply articulation once for each note value. That makes, what, maybe about 10 passes to get 99% of your notes, right? Why doesn't that work?

I'm assuming you can't enter an absolute value (ie, non-perccent) as duration for the staccato, like you can for key velocity. If you can, then it's even easier.

Or maybe I'm missing something?
