Hi,
Any one know how to import MIDI sequence files into Studio One Pro?

There are several ways:
1. File/Open... This will import the MIDI file into a new song. 2. Drag the MIDI file into the arrange window of an existing song. This also creates a NEW song. 3. Use the Browser (Files tab). The drop-down arrow by the MIDI file title can be used to select specific tracks in the MIDI file. This also creates a NEW song. I'm confused. I thought methods 2 and 3 imported the MIDI file into the EXISTING song. Have Presonus changed this in a recent version of Studio One?

I found this on page 103 of the manual: To import a MIDI file using the Browser, navigate to the desired file, as you would for an audio file, and click-and-drag it into your Song. If the MIDI file is dragged to an empty space in the Arrange view, a new Instrument Track will be created with that file placed on the Track at the position to which it was dragged. If the file is dragged to an existing MIDI Track, the file will be placed as a new Instrument Part on the Track, at the position to which it was dragged. I tried this with a MIDI file exported from Pro Tools 11 - it creates a new song. A commercial MIDI file was imported into the song correctly. |
Strange!!! I remember trying method 1 and 2 and it did not work!! But now it is working!
Many thanks for your help guys .. I highly appreciate it so much UPDATE: Sorry, only method 1 is working! Also, dragging the midi file to the start page dose not work!

LMike wroteI tried this with a MIDI file exported from Pro Tools 11 - it creates a new song. Thanks very much for the info. The two MIDI files that I mentioned were quite different. 1. Pro Tools Export MIDI file 75KB About 7 minutes long Many tempo changes 2. Commercial MIDI file 23KB Just over 4 minutes Single tempo |
You can put them anywhere and then add a new tab to the browser.
For example, open the browser and click the Files tab. Navigate (by expanding the Volumes entry) to the folder where the MIDI files are now. Click to highlight that folder, then right-click the FIles tab at the top. Click "New Tab From Here" and that folder will be added as a new tab.

Before you bounce anything down you need to insert a virtual instrument into the track where the midi file lives. You should hear it then when you put that track into play. Make sure the Instrument track is directed to the virtual instrument.
Check the midi part is playing everything in the correct octave. Adjust as necessary. But you need to hear your midi part playing the virtual instrument first. Then you can covert that to audio. The virtual instrument is no longer needed and the midi track can be muted so it is not playing anything or sending midi data anywhere.
