Converting midi standard drum files for use with Impulse

Post by meantown » Sat Nov 26, 2005 5:37 am

I've got a bunch of drum beats in midi standard drum format but they are misassigned to work with Impulse.

Is there a simple work around for this or do have to manually move the notes in all of these midi files?

yes, you need to move the rows of notes

look at your notes in clip view

click on the piano roll on the left hand side in your row to select the whole row, drag the whole row down to where it needs to be.

as i recall cell one (left to right) of impulse is C1 on the scale ...

post these questions in teh tips and tricks forum and you will usually get an answer quicker

Problem is it's like reading in the dark. None of the instruments, snare, bass drum etc are illustrated on the left column as is normally the case in most midi compliant apps.

Sure you can hear them but what a chore. I suppose it's something that needs to go in the wishlist section unless someone out there knows of an easier way.
