Dropping MIDI changes Conductor & Click

[HamhockStudios]

Hi all

I searched for this topic to come up and couldn't find it. So here goes:

When I have a template up (and have set tempo and time signature in Conductor track) and go to drag and drop MIDI, my click track gets often double timed and new time signature info is added). I am using the internal click and typically I have noticed this if I drag and drop a MIDI drum part from Toontrack into an empty MIDI track. It also creates a stamped new time sign and marker at the point of dropping it - which just clutters up the Conductor track visually.

So, my work around has been dragging and dropping a bunch of different drum MIDI parts into a project then once I feel I have all that I need for a particular song or cue, I then go back and reset my Conductor track to what I first set it to. By doing this, the click track then plays how I set it and not in this sort of double time approach ( I have my click set to quarter notes and after a drag and drop of outside MIDI, it changes to eighth notes.)

Please tell me there is a better, faster way to do this technique that I am not doing correctly.

Appreciate it.

What it does is only useful if you're dealing with different time signatures in your piece. I don't remember if Stylus does this too.

I'd check the Input Filter to see if you could disallow TS changes there, but I doubt it.

I don't think there's a way to prevent DP from adding those redundant TS events, but you can easily get rid of them afterwards by using the View Filter (which is perhaps what you mean you do when you wrote you "reset" your CT afterwards).
