User MIDI Files Missing

[Mark All]

When I upgraded from Superior Drummer 2 to Superior Drummer 3, my user MIDI files were not there–the ones I created and third party MIDI. Somehow I added folders, but there are no MIDI files in them. How can I add my pre-existing MIDI files to SD3?

(Don’t remember how I added the folders because I’ve spent a few weeks looking for my password.)

Thanks!

Hi,

if you go to the GROOVES page, there’s a button at the top left labeled ‘Grooves’. It opens a drop-down menu where you can select to ‘Add a Linked folder’ and ‘Show MIDI files from subfolders’.

Does this help?

A side note of the ‘Show MIDI files from subfolders’ option. Enabling this mean that all files from currently selected folder AND it’s sub folders will be visible immediately.

For example, you have a folder “A”, and all it contains is a folder “B”. Folder B contains a midi file “MIDI File”.
– If you in the folder browser area select folder A and having ‘Show MIDI files from subfolders’ you’ll see the “MIDI File”.
– If you have ‘Show MIDI files from subfolders’ disabled, you won’t see the file. In this case, you need to select folder “B” too.

I hope this clarifies it’s meaning 🙂
