Problems inserting MIDI track

Post by Dirk C » Sun Dec 12, 2021 6:19 pm

It seems so stupid: when I insert a new MIDi track in the arranger view of Live 10, I got indeed a new track, but there is already a plugin that comes with it (A Kontakt VST in my case). I expect to have an empty track...

The default template doesn't contain that plugin. So, how can I reset this functionality?

You have probably set a default MIDI track with a Kontakt instrument on it at some stage.

Just create a MIDI track, delete all the devices from it then right-click the track header name and select "Save as Default" which will now reset it to be a blank track

Thanks! I couldn't find where to define a default MIDI-track, so now it's working OK!
