Hi Eric,

what they mean is that if you have Tempo changes and/or Time Signature changes happening on the Timeline in your DAW, you can export a MIDI file from your DAW – it doesn’t really matter what’s in it, since it’s only used for timeline changes – and then Import those events to your SD3 Song Track, via the Song Track Menu.

This is useful for several reasons, not needing to enter them manually and if you use the Internal Bounce to Audio files, you just Disable the ‘Follow Host’ temporarily and Bounce, which means that those changes will be correctly reflected on the Bounced Audio files. If you do not do this, the Bounced files will have a fixed Tempo to what is active at the current playhead position in your DAW.

BR,

OK I think I get what you’re saying.  I will try this.

I thought what I tried earlier would work but it didn’t :

I exported the drums from S3 and imported the midi file into Studio One.   I then exported the midi event from Studio One. I then imported that midi file into. S3 via Song Track menu and did it by dragging the midi file into another track in S3.  Both ways didn’t work.  I turned off follow host and the audio played at the default 120bpm.

I will try what you suggested and report back.

Export project midi in your DAW and add the .mid file to SD3 via the track tab in the UI.

I had this problem in running audio out from SD3 in projects that had time sig and tempo changes, where the wavs were not in time with the project. When you add the .mid file you are telling SD3 what happens in the song, because otherwise it won’t know. It will work with follow host switched on when you are working within the VST, but not when you export audio. It will still run out your wavs at the correct speed if the tempo doesn’t change, but you won’t get the time sig subdivisions in the SD click.

By the way, once you have put the midi file in, if you are exporting audio then do so with follow host switched off otherwise the wavs will, again, be out of time.

I’m having an issue right now where audio export is playing earlier than the actual notes in the session.  I’m a bit confused when you say “Export project midi in your DAW and add the .mid file to SD3 via the track tab in the UI.”   I work strictly in the S3 Editor.  Are you saying I should export the midi file from S3 and then import into the DAW and then export it… and then add that .mid file to SD3?

 

Thank you!

I don’t have any screen capturing software.  I’ll have somebody record a video with their phone.  I’ll share a link tomorrow.  Thank you!

ok awesome thanks for the reply!  I’ll report back if I find any new workarounds!

Has this been resolved?  This is happening to me as well.  I record straight into SD3.  It’s red.. I see notes recording… but when I hit stop, it doesn’t save the last half bar of the notes it just recorded.  Super strange.
