Unwanted SysEx Data track created

[Steve]

I’ve been using SD3 for a while with no problems. However, recently when dragging patterns from SD to Cubase an “SysEx Data” midi track is created. If I drop 20 drum patterns and fills into CB, I get 20 SysEx Data tracks. It’s becoming a bit tedious having to always delete them.

Does anyone knows how to prevent this?

EDIT: I’ve just checked my SD3 update history. I updated to 3.2.7 on 23/11/21 which coincides with the start of the SysEx Data problem.

Hi,

check your Cubase Preferences to Filter out SysEx data. It should be by Default.

Thanks John,

I assume you mean MIDI-MIDI Filter, “Record” and “Thru”. Unfortunately, checked or unchecked doesn’t make a difference.

I create weekly drive images of my system, so was able to restore my C: Drive to the image which had SD3 3.2.4

SD3 3.2.4 worked perfectly, ie. not creating SysEx Data tracks. I then updated again to 3.2.7, the issue returned.

Seems something has gone awry with the 3.2.7 update.

OK, I can’t replicate here but I have forwarded to my colleagues. Thanks for reporting.

Hi,

You need to turn off “Auto Dissolve Format 0” in Cubase preferences > MIDI > MIDI File.

Thanks Olof,

That’s fixed it.

Surely, this must be a bug in the update.

I’ve used Superior Drummer (2&3) for a few years and never encountered this behaviour before 3.2.7

Thanks again
