7.8.3 Importing MIDI to Patterns
You can import MIDI files (extension “.mid”) to Patterns. This allows you to use in MASCHINE
MIDI files prepared with another application. This function is only available in the software.
Importing MIDI data into a Pattern that already contains data (note, modulation tracks,
and MIDI tracks) will replace that data. As always, this can be undone both in the soft-
ware or from your controller (see section
↑
2.3.3, Undo/Redo ).
You can import MIDI files into Groups or into individual Sounds. You can do this via three
methods: via the context menu of the Group/Sound, via drag-and-drop, or via the
FILES pane
of the Browser. You can even import multiple MIDI files at once. The following paragraphs de-
scribe each of these situations.
Importing a MIDI File to a Group
You can import a MIDI file to a whole Group. In particular, this allows you to import a drum
beat for an entire drum kit. You can do this via the Group’s context menu or via drag-and-drop.
Method 1: via the Group’s context menu
1.
In the Group List (left of the Arranger), click the Group in which you want to import the
MIDI file.
This sets the focus to that Group and displays its Patterns in the Pattern Editor under-
neath.
2. Select the Pattern in which you want to import the MIDI file.
