"Format 1 MIDI files" in Pandora or Widget?

Postby STUDIO6 » Sat Nov 11, 2023 9:45 am

Hi,

is it possible to play (import) a Midi Track into Pandora or Widget?
I am working with a composer who plays selfmade instruments via Midi in Logic Pro during his period of composing.
I need to take over at some point. He could export the Midi-Tracks as a "Format 1 MIDI file". But how can I use them?

Thanks, René

Hi Rene,

no there is no way to import midi tracks into the WD or PB.

Cheers,
Christian

The composer should be able to render out a wav AUdio of the composition.

No, the composer can't just export a wav. The Midi Notes are not the music! They trigger events, which produce music on stage, like motors, controler and other devices...

Dear Daniel,

I somehow missed your reply and the project was delayed. But I am getting back to it now. Where can I sent you the midi-file to?

Thanks and best,
René
