About midi import

I was watching this: [Renoise and Midi Files] And I thought: “it’s 2022. we should have normal midi import in Renoise.” Why isn’t this fixed yet or high on the to-do list?

How do I import midi files without adding a new "midi instr.", keeping the old vst instrument?

Yes? I tried loading with options and de-selecting create instr.midi, etc, but no luck? I have the need to go trough many midi files, chord progressions, to be exact.

maybe its time we can properly import midi files not like opening a new song but importing them to selected track or something. especially useful when using drag n drop drum vsti with midi rhythm libraries.

Improved Midi File Import

I just learned that midi files can’t be imported as tracks. Only entire songs. I don’t use midi files for much, but I’ve started slicing drum breaks in Kontakt 2 just to export and use the midi files for the groove of the break. Basically take the midi data and change the hits. However, since Renoise doesn’t handle midi files as tracks but as entire songs the only way to do this is a little odd. I was told by the, always helpful, forum experts that I can open renoise twice and basically copy an…

midi drag/drop creates a new track at the far right - why?

MIDI import was overhauled in 3.1, to support merging multiple MIDI documents into the song (remember the tedious copy-paste between instances?) But it doesn’t support drag-drop in a selected track - new patterns are always appended to the song (it could appear to work that way the first time, but that’s only because you’re loading into an empty song?) You also have some MIDI import options which can be configured by rightclicking a MIDI file from the Disk Browser (Load with options).

YOU ARE A LEGEND!!

The whole renoise community says: thank you so much!
