Drag loop from SD3 browser to Logic and the MIDI notes change??

    Do you have any MIDI In/E-drums preset enabled in SD3? Those will alter incoming MIDI, but not the MIDI that’s inside SD3 (like playing from the song track, or the Grooves tab).

    I do have an E-Drums preset loaded for my Roland TD-30… but this is for dragging loops from the browser to the DAW… Are you saying that by having the E-Drum mapping enabled, SD3 reconfigures or adjusts the incoming loop and moves the note numbers around?

    I tested this theory – and it seems to have solved the issue.  I appreciate the help – would have never thought of that on my own.   I am wondering though, why would a mapping of e-drum triggers change the note numbers of a loop being dragged into Logic.   Would love to understand how and why SD3 moves those notes – when E-drum triggering is very different than loop dragging.

    Thanks again!

    Well,

     

    the enabled MIDI Preset transforms incoming MIDI (from e.g. different E-drum manufacturers) to be mapped according to the SD3 layout, so that you can both use your MIDI repository internally in the plugin while triggering it externally.

    When you have dragged MIDI to your DAW, it is no longer internally handled but triggered externally, so you cannot have the MIDI Preset enabled.

    There is no way for the plugin to know if the incoming MIDI is from a DAW Track or E-drums.

     

    I hope this clarifies,

    John
