Grid editor gets stuck

I am using Superior 3 in Windows 10 with Studio One professional. Grid editor is really great, but recently I have had major problems with it. I am editing midi from edrums and I need to clean and move events, for example from one cymbal to another. There is a lot of work in the edits and grid editor is really suitable for the task. Unfortunately it slows down during the sessions and ultimately gets totally stuck at some point. Especially moving events from a drum to another can take a long time, even minutes and finally S3 halts totally. Then I have to kill the process in Windows.

Is there anything I can do to prevent this? I need to complete the task and now it seems quite difficult.
EDIT: I have plenty of memory and processing power – so that is not the reason. Also, MIDI should not really take memory.

Here you go. I hope this helps nail it down.

I have exported all the MIDI from these projects and I suggest you don’t keep it solely is SD3 until this is addressed. This file will no longer open. I let it sit for an hour and I just get the beach ball.

Just wanted to give you guys a heads up that we have fixed some bugs we found thanks to your projects.
Hopefully you will be able to open and use your projects again without problems, I can’t give you an ETA for the 3.1.2 update but it should be out soon 🙂

Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for helping us find these bugs!

Thank you.  

Do you want me to upload your project that has been re-saved with 3.1.2?
It should allow you to work a while before 3.1.2. arrives to you guys.

Also, do you actually use any CC values for anything or do you want me to strip those events as well? (they are what is causing the project to become corrupt due to the bugs and it could potentially happen again until the update is out).
I see there is a lot going on but it appears the CC is not actually used for anything (unless you are using MIDI out to something else?)

That would be great.

I’m not using any CC values at this time.

Thank you!

Thank you. Is there any particular action that’s causing this problem that I should avoid until there is an update?
