There is a solution to the excess bars problem, but it’s not free and it takes some time.
I bought the Fluid Fusion pack from GGD and encountered the same problem: Every single file would cause SD3 to show 2482 (!) bars so it was simply unusable in the song track.
GGD support told me, those packs were designed for the GGD environment exclusively (which is bulls***t in my opinion) but recommended to convert them via https://www.midiremap.com/ which turned out to be quite helpful.
I created a ZIP file with all 225 files and ran a batch convert using the provided presets for GGD and SD3. They ask for some money, but not very much (1,18 € for a customer from Germany). I re-imported those converted files into my user library and the bar issue was fixed. The whole process took me about half an hour.
Nevertheless, from now on I will be very careful choosing the source of my MIDI files, obviously GGD does not give a f*** on compatibility.
