song track plays different variations in logic pro x.

[timothy gibbs]

Hi,

I created a song track in SD3 and replaced some groove variations while creating the track. Exported the midi & imported the midi file into logic pro x & the old variations i replaced are back. I decided after trying different ways to import the midi without any luck of getting the correct song track to edit the midi in logic but the parts i want to remove are not there but they are playing. What kind of magic is this?

I’m not sure what your exact workflow was here but it should work to:

• Drag and drop to MIDI to the SD3 song track, and arrange it.
• Drag and drop the MIDI from the SD3 song track directly to an Instrument/MIDI Track in Logic
  • When you do this, you should disable “Follow Host” in SD3, or else both the MIDI in SD3 and Logic will play simultaneously.

When you save the Logic project and load it later, no MIDI should have been changed on the SD3 song track. However, there’s a bug that makes Follow Host getting enabled again when loading projects. To avoid this, add a new Song Track in SD3 and have that selected – so it doesn’t matter if Follow Host gets enabled. This bug will be fixed in a coming update!

Thanks for responding. I swear to you that the version of the groove would not update to the groove I replace it with. I was able to force it to change but I can’t remember all the things I tried to make it update but I can tell you it had nothing to do with turning off following the host. I think I may have created another track in SD3 & copied from old track to new & then dragging the new track into logic worked. I believe that is how I got it to update.

Ok. If you can specify an exact workflow that replicates the strange behaviour, post it here so we can test it!
