Saving midi

[Richard Kitt]

Probably a daft question but if I edit a midi groove in the editor how do I save it?  At the moment  I edit a groove and the modified groove just sits in the track with the same name it had in the first place, so how do I either change its name so it doesnt clash with the originals or preferably save it to disk so it can be reused in other projects.  Sorry if that was a bit muddled and that the answer is not staring me in the face in the manual because I have looked.

Superior Drummer 3 version: 3.0.3
Operating system: Windows 7

Under the Grooves tab, which is where you are, look at the bottom left. There will be Track, Block and Track 1.

You should be able to export your midi file from the menu on the ‘Track’ tab.

Export to a self made folder from which you can import back if you wish to for other projects.

There are probably other ways to do this as well by keeping the file inside SD3, but I don’t know what they are yet.

Hi

Thanks for the reply.  I didnt consider looking for ‘export’, blinkers on I guess.

Cheers

Hi Richard,

I have found a better way to do this now.

As you edit the midi file it is updated below in the track view. When you are finished editing, simply drag the file from the track view into the User Library/User Midi. This is right above the track view.

When your new file is in the user library, tap on it’s name to rename it.

This way is definitely mush easier than what I suggested previously.

Regards

Rodney
